The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is developing plans for proposed improvements on four miles of US 10/WIS 114 in Calumet County. This website provides information regarding the proposed improvement scope, schedule, and traffic impacts, describes potential real estate needs, and offers public comment opportunities. We appreciate your input and encourage you to take a moment to review the project information and provide comments
Project location
The project is located on US 10 between WIS 114 in the city of Menasha and County N in the village of Harrison, Calumet County, Wis. There are two projects each identified by a unique project ID in the work zone.
Project purpose and need
The existing concrete pavement is deteriorating with cracking throughout. The roadways were last reconstructed in the early 1990s. Deterioration is also occurring on the asphalt shoulders, guardrails, culverts, and at the County N Park & Ride. Curb ramps do not meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, posing an injury risk to pedestrians using canes, wheelchairs, walkers, etc.
Proposed improvements
This is a resurfacing-level improvement that includes the following construction operations:
- Repair and grind concrete pavement from WIS 114 to Fire Lane 7 to improve driving conditions
- Repair concrete pavement and place an asphalt overlay from Fire Lane 7 to County N
- Resurface all asphalt shoulders on US 10
- Replace spot sections of curb and gutter
- Upgrade curb ramps to meet ADA standards at County LP and Oneida Street, as required
- Replace guardrails to meet current standards
- Repair drainage features (cleaning culverts, replacing endwalls, minor ditch grading and one culvert replacement)
- Install new pavement marking and replace shoulder rumble strips to maintain safety
- Resurface the asphalt pavement at the County N park and ride
Project exhibits
Each exhibit below shows each construction operation location and general plan information.
Traffic impacts
US 10 will remain open to traffic for most of the construction using single-lane closures and flagging operations.
- A short-term (five-day) closure and detour will be needed when conducting the below construction operations:
- Final traffic control will be determined during the design process.
- The County N Park & Ride will require a short-term closure for resurfacing.
Schedule
- Preliminary design – Fall 2023
- Local officials meeting and public involvement – Summer 2024
- Public comment period – Through August 9, 2024
- Preliminary plans – Fall 2024
- Environmental document – Fall 2024
- Final plans - November 1, 2025
- Construction currently scheduled in 2028
- Construction could be advanced to 2026 if funding becomes available.
Real estate
All work is anticipated to occur within the existing right-of-way. If right-of-way needs are determined, those property owners will be contacted directly.
Business Resource: In This Together program
WisDOT recognizes businesses located in work zones or impacted by detour routes have special needs. WisDOT's In This Together program is offered to businesses, organizations, and community leaders as an idea source as they plan for road construction in their area. It includes promotional examples, case studies, and a specially-designed Business Coordination Guide with information on:
