Wisconsin Avenue from Richmond Street to Ballard Road is scheduled to be reconstructed in 2011. Underground City utilities such as storm sewer, sanitary sewer, water main will be reconstructed in 2010. Private utilities such as electric, gas and telephone will also need to be relocated in 2010.

The Department of Transportation is the lead agency on this project and has hired Omnni Associates to design the project. The proposed project begins at Richmond Street (S.T.H. 47) and extends easterly to Ballard Road (C.T.H. E). In general the existing roadway is one lane in each direction with some on street parking and turn lanes at the signalized intersections. The roadway will be reconstructed to two lanes in each direction. The signalized intersections will have two through lanes and a left turn lane in each direction on Wisconsin Avenue. Some indent parking that was identified by the Wisconsin Avenue Parking Committee in 2002 may be incorporated into the design.
