Temporary business signing and business resources
Temporary business signing may be placed during the detoured portion of the project by filling out a WisDOT business signing permit. All temporary business signing needs approval via the permit before placement to ensure it is in a safe location and does not pose a visual distraction or traffic hazard. The temporary business signing permit is free. Costs associated with creating the temporary sign are the responsibility of the business. The permit is available as a fillable-form WORD document at the webpage below:
For more information regarding temporary signing, plus tips and tools for businesses impacted by highway construction, please visit WisDOT’s “In This Together” business resource website. The In This Together program is offered to business and community leaders as an idea source as they plan for road construction in their area.
