Access during the holiday season:
- Three lanes of traffic within the project limits on WIS 241 northbound and southbound are fully open to traffic.
- All east/west turning movements are open to traffic.
Crews are continuing to install permanent signals and signage, while finalizing some restoration work. This work may require periodic short-term daytime lane closures.
