Lansing Bridge to open in November ahead of schedule

Sep 4, 2026 | 4:34 PM

The Iowa Department of Transportation and Wisconsin Department of Transportation announced that the Mississippi River Crossing at Lansing is proceeding well ahead of the original timeline. The agencies expect to open the bridge to traffic in early November 2026, instead of the initial planned opening in spring 2027. Project staff credited the early opening plans to the concentrated work of the contractors and subcontractors, which has also been aided by favorable weather and river conditions.
