The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is notifying motorists of upcoming long-term traffic impacts associated with the ongoing I-41 rehabilitation project in Milwaukee County. The following work is scheduled to take place as part of this project.

Beginning the week of April 20:

  • Full closure of Mill Road under I-41 for bridge work. Mill Road closure will remain in place through late 2026.
