Construction Junction
You know the saying: Road construction is Wisconsin’s fifth season. And this year it arrived in full force for city of Madison and UW-Madison throughfares when temperatures rose and students took off for the summer. One of the most visible city projects is under way along University Avenue, a major east-west corridor through the campus. There, travelers on foot, bicycles, cars and buses are met with the sound of jackhammers and cement mixers, the smell of dust and diesel fumes, and the sight of hard hats and detour signs.
Find the latest updates on traffic impacts due to campus construction.
