Location
WIS 97, Black Creek Bridge Rehabilitation, Marathon County
Project Overview
We are proposing to replace the thin polymer overlay, the existing polymer overlay is debonding and in poor condition on the WIS 97 bridge for Black Creek in the village of Athens in Marathon County. Secondary work would include guardrail upgrades, joint replacement on the bridge and slope stabilization under the bridge.
Traffic Impact
During construction, WIS 97 is proposed to be closed and traffic detoured. The proposed detour route is County A to WIS 13 to WIS 64.

Permanent right of way acquisition is currently not anticipated. The project is anticipated to require temporary limited easements.
