Portion of Highway 61 in Dickeyville To Be Repaved

A one-mile stretch of Highway 61 through the Village of Dickeyville is scheduled to be repaved this summer. Officials with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation say the asphalt road surface will be milled and removed, then repaved between Pitzen Lane and Hickory Lane. A small amount of storm sewer work also will be done as part of the project, in addition to several intersections getting sidewalk and handicap ramp improvements. Sidewalk work will be staged, so a sidewalk on one side of the street will remain open while the other side is being replaced. Highway 61 will remain open to traffic during construction, with traffic being controlled by flaggers. Iverson Construction of Kieler is the general contractor.
