WIS 38 Resurfacing and Roundabouts (4 Mile Road and 5 Mile Road) - Racine County

Overview

This proposed WisDOT project will resurface WIS 38 between Linwood Road and Dunkelw Road in Racine County.

Both intersections are included in the top five percent of the most severe crash sites in the state.

Proposed Improvements:

  • Resurface WIS 38 between Linwood Road and Dunkelow Road
