Many Highway 57 motorists may be dealing with a nearly 25-mile detour next week. On Wednesday the Wisconsin DOT announced that a full closure is needed to allow work on the railroad which crosses the busy highway just south of Plymouth and north of County Road double-P.
The closure of both lanes between double-P and Spur Lane lasts from 4 a.m. next Monday until 4 p.m. on Friday the 20th.
Designed by the DOT to handle the heavy loads involved with semis and other commercial vehicles, detour traffic will be routed on a 25-minute drive in either direction, using State Highways 23 and 28 along with I-43. Local users will have other options using such roads as South Street, Highland Avenue or Pleasant View Road to get around the detour.
