April 8, 2026 – Washington Co., WI – An $6.8 million safety improvement project has been approved for the I-41 and WIS 60 interchange in Washington County, Wi. Construction is scheduled to begin the week of April 13, 2026.
Improvements include:
- Reconstruct the WIS 60 on-ramp to I-41 southbound to address merging conflicts
- Widen and realign the right turn lanes at the I-41 southbound off-ramp to improve visibility
- Addition of traffic signals at the southbound ramp terminal and extension of the westbound WIS 60 left turn lane
- Partial deck removal and widening to increase length of WIS 60 left turn lane to I-41 northbound on-ramp
- Pavement resurfacing, new pavement markings and signing
Traffic Impacts:
This project will require a combination of long-term and overnight closures along WIS 60 and the on/off-ramps to/from I-41. Detours will be posted during long-term closures. Single lane closures on I-41 will be limited to off-peak hours for bridge improvements.
Access to local businesses and residences will be maintained.
Schedule:
Construction on this project is scheduled to begin in mid-April and be completed in fall 2026. All work is weather dependent and subject to change.
Getting off 41 to 60 from the north sucked, it was difficult to get on 60 if you were heading towards Jackson.
