The pavement on this segment of WIS 93 is showing signs of deterioration. To address this and other issues, WisDOT plans to:
- Remove a portion of the existing pavement and overlay the road with 3.25 inches of new asphalt.
- Replace the Clear Creek Bridge and box culvert at Pine Creek with bridges.
- Clean, replace and reset sections of existing culverts.
- Widen paved shoulders to five feet.
- Install shoulder rumble strips and new pavement markings.
- Add asphaltic curbs/flumes to manage roadway runoff.
- Replace or adjust guardrail.
- Clear ditches and trim or remove trees.
Construction currently is scheduled for 2025. During construction:
- WIS 93 will be closed to through traffic and detoured via US 10, US 53 and I-94 during the replacement of the structures at Clear and Pine creeks.
- WIS 93 will be reduced to one lane with traffic controlled by flaggers during resurfacing.
- Access will be maintained to properties in the work zone.
