The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is planning to make improvements on County T bridges over the Wisconsin River between Port Andrew and Blue River in Grant and Richland counties. This project will include replacement of the two bridges, pavement approaches, updated guardrail and pavement markings. Construction is anticipated for 2027 with an anticipated closure of two years. During construction County T will be closed and detoured utilizing WIS 60, WIS 80 and WIS 133.
Those who are concerned about the closure of the construction area are advised to email Derek Potter at derek.potter@dot.wi.gov or Ryan McKane at ryan.mckane@wsp.com by Monday, February 26. Your comments will assist in the development of a project that will serve the needs of the traveling public as well as the needs of the local community.
