I-39/90/94 Study - Public involvement

Public Hearings

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) will host a series of three public hearings: one virtual session and two in-person sessions. The same information will be shared at all three hearings.

The hearings will provide updates on the study's Draft Environmental Impact Statement, recommended preferred alternative and corridor improvements. Information on how the public can present verbal and written testimony will be provided at the hearing.

Both in-person meeting facilities are ADA-compliant and wheel-chair-accessible. Persons who are deaf or hard of hearing and require an interpreter may request one by contacting the Wisconsin Telecommunications Relay System (dial 711) at least seven working days prior to the hearing. To request a Spanish- or Hmong- speaking interpreter at the hearing, please contact WisDOT Project Manager David Schmidt at david2.schmidt@dot.wi.gov at least seven working days prior to the hearing.

Materials being shared at the hearings are posted below to help give more opportunity for public feedback. (Please note large files may take a moment to download.)

Stakeholders/committees

Stakeholder committees have been formed to provide updates and get feedback as the study progresses.

Business Advisory Committee (BAC)

The BAC gives the WisDOT team an avenue to share study information and obtain feedback from businesses along the corridor. This committee will provide a setting for members to provide feedback about the study’s communications approach, design needs, corridor issues, and environmental concerns and needs. The BAC includes large employers and business groups who can easily share study information with their employees and members.

Technical Advisory Committee (TAC)

Local and regional transportation and planning professionals comprise the TAC. This committee will provide technical information such as transportation and land use plans, utility locations, traffic volumes, public transportation routes, and general engineering and planning principles and policies.

Local Official Advisory Committee (LOAC)

Local and elected officials from the state, tribes, counties, cities, villages, other municipalities, and government agencies within the corridor will make up the LOAC. This committee will provide an opportunity for local leadership input on study aspects, including the need for the study, alternatives development and environmental impacts and benefits. The committee also provides valuable information about the study that local officials can share with their constituents and stakeholders.
