I-94 (WIS 93 Interchange), Eau Claire - Eau Claire County

Location

I-94/WIS 93 interchange, Eau Claire - Eau Claire County.

Overview

I-94 and WIS 93 are critical routes for many motorists. However, the northbound and southbound WIS 93 bridges over I-94 are aging and need rehabilitation.

The northbound bridge needs:

  • Concrete pavement approach replacement.
  • Fiber wrapping at all three piers.
  • Wing wall replacement.

The southbound bridge needs:

  • Concrete pavement approach replacement.
  • Fiber wrapping at all three piers.
  • Joint replacement at both abutments.
  • A polymer overlay.

Schedule

Construction currently is scheduled for 2025 but could be advanced to 2024.

Traffic Impacts

I-94 and WIS 93 will remain open to traffic during construction, but the following are planned:

  • Single-lane closures will be used during off-peak traffic periods on I-94.
  • Continuous single-lane closures will be used on WIS 93 until completion of the work for each bridge.
  • Nighttime operations are anticipated on I-94.
  • A detour of the westbound I-94 on-ramp to US 53 will be used to mitigate delay during work on the southbound WIS 93 bridge.
