A Note of Thanks

With the WIS 24/Forest Home Ave. reconstruction project underway and impacting motorists and businesses alike, I wanted to convey my sincere thanks on a few fronts.

First, thanks to cooperation involving the Milwaukee County Transit System and the Department of Public Works for a new one hour parking zone east of the construction project area and west of S. 44th St. This is providing enough parking for two or three cars, and is much needed.

Also, thank you to WisDOT for the “Businesses open during construction” signs installed yesterday afternoon, alerting motorists to Rescued Roasters Coffee, Knight’s Gourmet Popcorn, and Access Mobility Vans. Please patronize these small businesses and help keep them going during the project!

Finally, just a friendly reminder that WisDOT will be hosting an update meeting for businesses along WIS 24/Forest Home Ave. from S. 45th St. to W. Howard Ave. The meeting will take place on Wednesday, April 16, at 3:00 p.m. at Greenfield City Hall, 7325 W. Forest Home Ave. This will be a project briefing-style meeting with an overview, schedule status, and traffic updates (following the briefing, it will be opened up to a Q&A session).

Please stop out at the business update meeting if you are able to.
