To invest in Wisconsin’s transportation system, Governor Evers has approved a $229,000 drainage improvement project along County LL at I-43 in Ozaukee County. Vinton Construction Company is the prime contractor for the project. Work is scheduled to begin October 6. 
Improvements include:
- Reroute the existing drainage system to a new storm sewer pipe on the east side of County LL
 - Embankment repair and maintenance 
 
Traffic Impacts:
Due to the location of the sewer work, County LL at I-43 will be impassable during construction. Additional traffic impacts include: 
- Shoulder closures on I-43 at County LL. 
 - A detour will be posted utilizing County KW, County A, and County LL.
 
Schedule: 
Construction is scheduled to take approximately one (1) month. All work is weather dependent and subject to change.
