Project overview

  • The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) and the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) are conducting the I-39/90/94 Corridor Study between US 12/18 in Madison and US 12/WIS 16 in Wisconsin Dells. The study will also evaluate I-39 from where it splits from I-90/94 to Levee Road near Portage. The study corridor is about 67 miles long and travels through Dane, Columbia, Sauk and Juneau counties.
  • The purpose of the I-39/90/94 Corridor Study is to address existing and future traffic demands, safety issues, aging and outdated infrastructure.
  • WisDOT will identify project needs and evaluate a range of alternatives in an environmental impact statement (EIS). The EIS process, which will include ongoing opportunities for public involvement, will lead to the identification of a preferred alternative.
