More work taking place on state Highway 29

A $10.7 million contract has been set to improve state Highway 29, between County Road M and South Highline Road, in the towns of Richmond, Belle Plaine, Waukechon and Hartland, as well as the city of Shawano.

Work is scheduled to begin April 13.

Vinton Construction Company is the prime contractor for the project. Crews will replace existing guard rail, repair concrete pavement, replace concrete pavement and deteriorating bridge approach slabs, and replace several culverts under both eastbound and westbound Highway 29.

Asphalt overlays will also take place on state Highway 22, state Highway 55/state Highway 47 north, state Highway 117/state Highway 47 south, and at the park and ride along Express Way at the Bonduel interchange.

During construction, single-lane closures on Highway 29 will take place with one lane of traffic maintained in both directions. Short-term ramp closures will also take place.

Construction is scheduled for completion by Oct. 20. The schedule is dependent on favorable weather conditions and construction progress.
