Upcoming full, directional closures along I-894 in Milwaukee County
As part of the ongoing I-894 resurfacing project, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is notifying motorists of upcoming full, directional closures on I-894 between the Hale Interchange and the Mitchell Interchange. The closures will allow crews to complete final paving operations along the corridor.
This work will be conducted over the course of two weekends:
11:00 P.M. Friday, June 6 – 5:30 A.M. Monday, June 9:
- Westbound I-894 is scheduled to close between the Mitchell Interchange and the Hale Interchange.
- Eastbound I-894 will remain open to traffic.
11:00 P.M. Friday, June 13 – 5:30 A.M. Monday, June 16:
- Eastbound I-894 is scheduled to close between the Hale Interchange and the Mitchell Interchange.
- Westbound I-894 will remain open to traffic.
I-894 Detours:
- Motorists are encouraged to use other regional routes such as I-43, I-94, and I-41 to get around the closures.
Access to businesses and residences will be maintained. All work is weather dependent and subject to change.
