Ugh. Always with the construction.

I'd love to see some infrastructure spending that took cars off the road. Guess that will have to wait until 2025.

This Interstate bridge serves as a huge conduit to Twin Cities, Northern Wisconsin as well as local communities. It is over a mile in length and was built in 1961 and near end of expected life. https://wisconsindot.gov/Pages/projects/by-region/sw/i399094-bridge/default.aspx
