Project includes repairing spot locations on WIS 105 in Douglas County, resurfacing road
Release date: February 13, 2023
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is holding a public involvement meeting to discuss a proposed resurfacing project on WIS 105 in Douglas County from the Minnesota/Wisconsin state line in the village of Oliver east to WIS 35 in the city of Superior.
- When: 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 23
- A short presentation will be at 5:15 p.m.
- Where: Oliver Village Hall, 2125 E. State St., Superior
The existing pavement on WIS 105 is deteriorated. To address this and other issues, WisDOT is proposing to:
Construction is scheduled for 2024 and 2025. During construction in 2024, anticipated for late August to November, WIS 105 will be detoured via WIS 35, US 2 and MN 23 to repair the roadway in spot locations of settlement. During construction in 2025, expected in spring and summer, WIS 105 will remain open to traffic; however, motorists might encounter lane closures controlled by flagging. Delays should be expected when traveling the work zone, especially during commuting hours. Access to properties during construction will be maintained but may be by alternative routes.
WisDOT is accepting public comments on the proposed project through Friday, March 31. Additional information, including a comment form, can be found on the project
website.
