To invest in Wisconsin’s transportation system, Governor Evers recently signed a $883,069 contract to resurface WIS 80 between 25th Street W. and Kingsbury Drive in the City of Necedah, Juneau County. Preliminary work is scheduled to begin June 19.

Gerke Excavating is the prime contractor for the project. The project is designed to resurface WIS 80 between 25th Street W. and Kingsbury Drive. This project will also improve safety and traffic operations by widening the east side of the roadway to construct left-turn lanes.

Project completion is scheduled for August 2023. The schedule is dependent on favorable weather conditions and construction progress.
