The purpose of this project is to maintain interstate connectivity. The need for this project to address the pavement deteriorations exhibited on I-90 and WIS 131. The road exhibits cracking, spalling at joints, punchouts, and corner breaks. To address pavement deficiencies on I-90, concrete base patching/replacing concrete (for large areas) is proposed. According to bridge inspection reports four structures exhibit deficiencies I-90 over US 12, I-90 over WIS 131, I-90 over County M and bridge under I-90. Additionally, shoulders on I-90 will be treated in spot locations, while shoulders along WIS 131 will be subject to a 2-inches mill and overlay of asphalt pavement.
