• Closing of median openings west of 91st, west of 70th St, and east of
  60th St. due to their close proximity to high volume intersections and
  imposed safety concerns.

• Improved median turning at 72nd St. and 70th St. due to high crash
  area.

City of Milwaukee Bioswales
2 new bioswales to improve stormwater management

Village of Brown Deer Streetscaping
     To improve corridor aesthetics

Village Streetscaping
               West of 68th Street to Arbon Dr.

• Colored concrete intersections at Park Plaza Ct., 60th and 51st Sts.

• Raised planter and perennial, shrub and tree planting beds.

• Decorative colored concrete accents in the median.

Construction Staging
 Wis100 will remain open to traffic during construction

• 2 lanes of traffic will be maintained in both directions during
  weekday AM & PM peak rush periods.
• Traffic reduced to 1 lane in each direction mid-day, evening and
  over the weekends.
• Median left turning will be restricted where construction is
  occurring.

Driveway access
    Contractor to keep driveway access open at all times
• When work is required at your driveway, the contractor will work on it
  half at a time to keep access open to your driveway.
• Since working on the driveway half at a time will require a longer time
  period of disruption, please consider if alternate access is available or
  parking on a side street is an option, allowing the contractor to close
  your driveway. This allows them to complete the work needed in a
  shorter period of time and facilitates opening it to full operation sooner
  and minimizing disruption.

Local Road Closures
  Colored concrete intersections for streetscaping at Park
             Plaza Ct./66th, 60th St. and 51st St.
• During the colored concrete paving at these intersections, the side road
  access to WIS100 will be closed for a 7 day period to allow for proper
  concrete curing.
• Early strength concrete will be used to reduce closure time.
• Advanced warning of the local street closure will be provided.
• Side road closures will only be allowed one at a time to limit disruption
  on alternate routes.

Construction Timeframe
                               2021
• Construction expected to start April 1, 2021
• Construction expected to be completed by Nov. 1, 2021
• There will be a slight overlap with construction schedules as the
  next project on Brown Deer Rd. (east of Arbon Dr.) will begin in
  Sept. 2021.
• Pavement rehabilitation is expected to last 15-20 years.
