Not for not much longer. In accordance with the City of Milwaukee’s downtown plan over the past decade streets such as Broadway, and Jackson St. have been converted back to two-way traffic improving connectivity and access for all modes of traffic. And now, work has begun on the next piece of this plan, the stretch of E. State St. from Van Buren St. to Market St.

E. State St. Going Two-ways! Almost.

Dec 14th, 2009 | By | Category: East Town, Juneau Town, Yankee Hill

As key component of the downtown plan the City of Milwaukee set a goal of returning streets in the downtown area to two-way traffic. The idea is to make a street more pedestrian friendly and more logical for drivers. Making a street two-ways makes a street more convenient, can slow speeding traffic, and allows for more access and routes to be taken. The idea certainly is not to add as many odd quirks and novelties as possible.
