WIS 35, Pepin to Hager City - Pepin County

    • Replacing the top slab on the existing culvert
    • Replacing railing
    • Completing minor roadway approach work
    • Replacing curb and gutter

Traffic Impacts

During construction:

  • WIS 35 will be closed for work at the culvert just west of County J, and a detour will be signed.
    • Local and emergency access will be maintained to adjacent properties.
  • WIS 35 will remain open to traffic for the work at the culvert northwest of Cemetery Road, but motorists will encounter lane closures controlled by flagging.

  • When: 5-6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 11
  • Where: Calvary Covenant Church, 105 E. 2nd St., Stockholm
