I-41 Expansion Project - Highway 47/Richmond Street Bridge Reconstruction

under construction

The project involves the closure and reconstruction of the Highway 47/Richmond Street bridge over I-41 in Appleton as part of the larger I-41 corridor expansion between De Pere and Appleton. The interchange is being converted into a diverging diamond design to improve traffic flow, safety, and accommodate bicycles and pedestrians. The overall I-41 expansion includes widening 23 miles of the highway from four to six lanes, bridge replacements, interchange modifications, roadway reconstruction, and safety improvements.
