The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is seeking public input on improvements along I-39/90/94, I-94 and US 151 bridges in Columbia, Dane and Jefferson counties. Construction is currently scheduled for 2029.

A presentation and materials detailing this project are available to view on the project website at https://wisconsindot.gov/Pages/projects/by-region/sw/overlay-regionwide/default.aspx.

The project will install polymer overlays and flood seals on eleven bridges in Columbia, Dane and Jefferson counties. These treatments are needed to extend the service life of the bridge decks. A 6-foot-wide raised sidewalk will be added to the Milwaukee Street bridge in Dane County. The eleven bridges include:

  • Columbia County
    • US 151 southbound bridge over Maple Avenue
  • Dane County
    • Four I-90/94 westbound bridges between County N and WIS 73
    • Milwaukee Street bridge over I-39/90/94 northbound
    • I-94 bridges over US 151
  • Jefferson County
    • Three I-94 westbound bridges between WIS 26 and County F
    • I-94 eastbound bridge over Hillside Drive

I-39/90/94, I-94 and US 151 will remain open to traffic while being constructed under nighttime ramp and lane closures.

All persons interested in the project are encouraged to view the website and provide input by contacting project staff via email, postal mail, or phone. Your comments will assist WisDOT in developing a project that will serve the needs of the traveling public and community. Your input is welcome and appreciated throughout the design process. Questions and comments can be directed to WisDOT Project Manager Mark Sponem at mark.sponem@dot.wi.gov, (608) 245-2627, or mailed to the WisDOT Southwest Region, 2101 Wright Street, Madison, WI 53704.
