The existing pavement on WIS 25 is showing signs of deterioration. To address this and other issues, WisDOT is proposing:

  • Removing 4 inches of existing pavement and paving 4 inches of new asphalt pavement

  • Widening paved shoulders to five feet and installing shoulder rumble strips from County D to 250 feet south of Hill Road

    • Three feet of the existing shoulders currently is paved.

  • Placing gravel along the shoulders

  • Replacing guardrail

  • Cleaning ditches

  • Cleaning or replacing culverts and replacing culvert end walls

  • Replacing pavement markings


Construction will be completed in two phases. During culvert replacement, WIS 25 will be closed except to local traffic, and through traffic will be detoured using US 12, WIS 79 and WIS 170. During remaining work, motorists will encounter lane closures controlled by flagging and shoulder closures.


Construction currently is scheduled for 2030, but work could be advanced to 2028 if funding becomes available.
