Residents & Business Owners,
The switch to new lanes through downtown is anticipated to happen early next week. At that time, the Coon Prairie intersection will be reopened for traffic. Asphalt paving is starting on the temporary lanes on the north end of the project today. The contractor is milling joints at the driveways and intersections on the detour route this week. Manholes and water valves will be adjusted tomorrow for the detour to be paved this week or early next week. There will be some drop-offs of approximately 1 ½” at driveways and intersections until the paving is completed. Once the detour is paved, bidirectional traffic will resume on the route. The stop signs at Strate Street will return to the original configuration and State Street will no longer be under a stop condition at the intersection with Bekkedal. The City of Westby has decided to maintain the Stop condition at the intersection of Coon Prairie & Bekkedal coming from the south.
Once traffic has been switched to the new lanes next week, removals and storm sewer will begin between Black River and Coon Prairie on the eastbound lanes. This area will be the focus for the next few weeks.
Ramsland Road is now closed to thru traffic from the West.
Enjoy your weekend!
