Anticipated work scheduled: Crews will:

• Install guardrail on the US 45 and WIS 54 interchange ramps.
• Install the guardrail on WIS 54 for the eastbound lane on WIS 54 at the Embarrass River.
• Install temporary traffic signals at the intersection of Shawano Drive and WIS 54 and remove the existing signals.

• Complete the signing installation on US 45.
• Begin finishing items on US 45.

Traffic impacts (the next 10 days): 

• WIS 54 is reduced to one lane in each direction from Jeanne Street to House Road. Both eastbound and westbound WIS 54 traffic is shifted to the north half of the roadway from N. Shawano Drive to House Road.
• US 45 is closed to thru traffic and is detoured for approximately four months through mid-July 2026. Traffic is detoured via US 10 and WIS 22. Access to residents, businesses and emergency vehicles will be maintained during construction.
  • Access to County D at the south limits will remain open to traffic as the closure is just north of that intersection of County D and US 45.
  • Access to Church Road at the north limits will remain open to traffic as the closure is just south of that intersection of Church Road and US 45.
