Why is WisDOT going through all this planning work when funds have not been allocated?
The goal is to have a plan so that as lands develop or redevelop in the corridor, the possible changes to the roadway can be taken into consideration. Without a long-term plan, the best solution may become too expensive to accomplish if it would require removing new buildings and businesses. Funds cannot be allocated until the environmental impacts of a project are assessed.
