Those wishing to get on or off I-43 at Sheboygan overnight on Tuesday will want to plan ahead. That’s because some ramps will be shut down to accommodate a pair of projects that it’s hoped can be completed at the same time.
One of those projects involves ongoing construction of a new 6-1/2 mile, 138,000 volt transmission line between the Howards Grove Substation and the Erdman Substation just north of Sheboygan. Part of that project will require shutting down ramps at State Highway 42 for the placement of those power lines.
The other project is being undertaken by the State Department of Transportation, which will be replacing large highway signs on the I-43 overpass at State Highway 23. As the timing of both projects align nicely, access to on-and-off ramps at both highways 42 and 23 will be shut down at 8 p.m. Tuesday evening, and plans are to complete both projects before reopening access at 5 a.m. on Wednesday. It’s hoped that this will be the only shutdown needed.
Meanwhile, anyone needing to get on or off I-43 at Sheboygan on Tuesday night will need to use either the Highway “V” or Highway 28 access until Wednesday morning.
