Repairs to bridge over I-94 to result in lane, shoulder closures

Daytime closures under 11th/Heggen Street structure in Hudson set for Sept. 23-26

Release date: September 18, 2024

Motorists will encounter lane closures Monday through Thursday, Sept. 23-26 on east- and westbound I-94 under the bridge connecting Heggen and 11th streets in Hudson, so scheduled repairs can be made to the structure.

The left shoulders and far left lanes will be closed on:

• Eastbound I-94: From 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Wednesday and 7 a.m. to noon Thursday.
• Westbound I-94: From 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday through Thursday.

Some components on the bridge need repair. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation project will include:

• Removing the deteriorated concrete on the pier cap.
• Pier caps are horizontal structural members used for transferring bridge deck loads to the piers.
• Cleaning reinforcing steel.
• Forming and pouring concrete to regain the original dimensions of the cap.
• Applying a fiber-reinforced polymer wrap to strengthen and protect the cap.
• This work most likely will happen in spring 2025.

The work is weather and schedule dependent and subject to change.
