Location
US 63 from US 12 West north of the village of Baldwin to the Polk County line between the towns of Cylon and Forest in St. Croix County.
Overview
The existing pavement on this segment of US 63 is exhibiting signs of deterioration. To address this and other issues, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation plans to:
- Remove a portion of the existing pavement and overlay the roadway with new asphalt pavement.
- Widen the paved shoulders.
- Add rumble strips.
- Make bridge repairs.
- Complete culvert work.
- Clean ditches.
- Replace guardrail at spot locations.
Schedule
Construction currently is scheduled for 2027, but work could occur as early as 2026 if funding becomes available.
Traffic Impacts
During construction, US 63 will remain open to traffic for most of the work, but motorists will encounter:
- Single-lane closures
- A short-term detour during work on a deep culvert.
- Detour route: County E, County T and County G.
