Expect delays as you head through the Rawson Ave.-Interstate 94 interchange through the summer.
Oak Creek Patch has more, and here is a one-pager from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation with more details and a construction timeline. From the DOT document …
Construction on this project will take place in four major stages.
- In Stage 1, Rawson Avenue will be reduced to one lane of traffic in each direction between 13th and 20th Streets. The northbound exit ramp to westbound Rawson Avenue and the westbound Rawson Avenue bus and carpool entrance to the northbound loop ramp will also be closed at this time. Stage 1 of construction begins in mid-February to early March.
- In Stage 2, Rawson Avenue southbound entrance ramp, northbound loop ramp, northbound exit-ramp, and southbound exit ramp to eastbound Rawson Avenue will be closed to traffic. Rawson Avenue will maintain one lane of traffic in each direction between 13th and 20th Streets. Stage 2 of construction will start in early March to early June.
- In Stage 3, Rawson Avenue between 13th and 20th Streets will be closed to traffic as the old bridge is demolished and a new bridge installed. In addition to the ramps closed in Stage 2, the northbound entrance ramp from Rawson Avenue to I-94 will also be closed to traffic. Stage 3 of construction will begin early June to early July.
- In Stage 4, Rawson Avenue will be reopened to one lane in each direction between 13th and 20th Streets. All entrance and exit ramps atthe interchange will be closed to traffic during this stage as construction on the new interchange is finished. Stage 4 of construction will begin in early July and completed in late fall.
In other words, please be patient.
