Location
WIS 52, Langlade County line to WIS 32, Forest County
Project Overview
The pavement is showing signs of distress. To address this and other issues, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation is proposing:
- Removing a portion of the existing pavement and overlaying the roadway with new asphalt pavement
- Replacing culverts
- Regrading ditches to improve drainage
- Placing new pavement markings
Traffic Impact
During construction, WIS 52 will remain open to traffic for the majority of work, but motorists will encounter single-lane closures controlled by flagging.
- WIS 52 will be closed for the replacement of the Lily culvert.
Real Estate
Permanent right of way and/or temporary limited easements might be required for culvert replacement. To view information about landowner rights under Wisconsin's eminent domain law, click here for English, Hmong or Spanish.
