Traffic will not be able to access County P from WIS 17 but the highway will remain open to through traffic
Aug. 18, 2023
The WIS 17 intersection with County P in Rhinelander will be closed to traffic turning onto or off the roads. WIS 17 will still be open to through traffic on the road.
County P will be closed beginning Aug. 21. The intersection could be closed for up to 10 days.
Crews will reconstruct the intersection as part of the WIS 17 project. The intersection could be closed 10 working days each but could reopen earlier if work concludes before then.
