Archived News: This news release is more than one year old and may include outdated information.

The Milwaukee Street Bridge east of Fair Oaks Avenue will be reopened around 9AM on Tuesday, November 10th. The contractors will continue working on the project through November 20th to finish and cleanup any remaining work that needs to be completed.
 
Due to contractor delay on some signal work, the intersection will continue to be controlled by stop signs. There will only be one lane open in each direction until the new signals are operational.
 
Travel delays are expected during the morning and afternoon rush hours.  Motorists are encouraged to continue using alternative routes until the street is fully open.
