MANITOWOC COUNTY, Wis. (WFRV) – Construction on WIS 32/57 in Manitowoc County is scheduled to commence on Monday.
According to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT), beginning April 11, crews will be doing construction on 3.9 miles of WIS 32/57 from WIS 67 in the city of Kiel to the WIS 32/57 south junction in the Town of Millhome.
During construction work will include:
- Milling 3 inches and placing 4 inches of new asphalt
- Concrete repairs
- Beamguard marking
- Pavement marking
Officials believe these improvements will reduce surface roughness and provide a smoother and safer ride for motorists.
WisDOT confirms that WIS 32/57 will remain open during construction, except for a brief closure to pave the roundabout at WIS 67 and the WIS 32/57 south junction.
Travelers in that area during the construction period are asked to note the following short term closures:
- WIS 67/WIS 32/57 Roundabout:
- Two to three-day closures of the roundabout will occur when resurfacing operations reach that stage of construction.
- WIS 32/57 southern split:
- Ramp connectors at the south junction of WIS 32/57 will be closed for up to five days.
- All ramps will not be closed at the same time. Not consecutive.
- Ramp connectors at the south junction of WIS 32/57 will be closed for up to five days.
Work is expected to wrap up in July 2022. For more information, visit the WIS 32/57 Project construction website.
