Eastbound Closure of I-894 Set For This Weekend
Alderman Peter Burgelis wants to remind area residents to the planned project work on I-894 that will result in the freeway’s full eastbound closure from the Hale Interchange to the Mitchell Interchange for final paving operations. This comes as part of the Wisconsin Department of Transportation’s (WisDOT) ongoing rehabilitation of I-894 between 84th and 35th Streets in Milwaukee Country. The weekend closure will begin Friday, June 13 at 11 p.m. and run through Monday, June 16 at 5:30 a.m. All project work is weather dependent.
“I-894 is set for one additional weekend of closures, this time on the eastbound portion of the freeway, as WisDOT nears completion of this rehabilitation project that was much needed,” said Alderman Burgelis. “I want to thank residents for the patience and understanding during last weekend’s closure, and for that continued grace again this weekend. I also want to thank WisDOT for this $63 million investment in our infrastructure, and for getting this project done on time and under budget.”
