Location
This project will include work on WIS 13 from the intersection with County O in the town of Medford to the intersection with Taylor Street in the city of Medford and on WIS 64 from National Avenue to WIS 13 in the city of Medford, all in Taylor County.
Overview
The pavement on segments of both highways is deteriorating. To address that and improve safety at the intersection of WIS 13 and WIS 64 in Medford, WisDOT is proposing to:
- Resurface WIS 13 from County O in the town of Medford to Taylor Street in the city of Medford.
- Resurface WIS 64 from National Avenue to WIS 13 in the city of Medford.
- Reconfigure the WIS 13/64 intersection to better accommodate turning trucks and improve overall safety and replace the traffic signals at the crossing.
In addition, curb ramps on both segments of highway will be replaced to meet Americans With Disabilities Act standards.
Schedule
Construction is scheduled for 2024.
Traffic Impacts
Traffic will be staged to allow a single lane to remain open at all times on WIS 13 and WIS 64. In addition, access will be maintained to local businesses and residences.
