WIS 22 (WIS 156 to Lake Wagner Road)

design

This section of WIS 22 connects smaller communities together. The proposed work on WIS 22 will address the aged and deteriorated pavement and curb and gutter, add pavement marking, modify intersections, and upgrade curb ramps to provide the public a safe facility. Proposed improvements include: 5.5-inch mill and overlay in the city of Clintonville, from the beginning of the project approximately 50 feet north of WIS 156 for approximately 0.57 miles.1.5-inch mill, 3-inch cold-in-place recycle and a 2.5-inch overlay of new asphaltic pavement in the rural portions of the project. The rural portions are between Clintonville and Embarrass, as well as north of the Embarrass village limits to the end of the project.Reconstruction through village of Embarrass. 16-inch subgrade, 12-inch base, 5.5-inch new asphaltic pavement, new concrete curb and gutter. The road will be narrowed from its existing width of 44 feet to a width of 32 feet. Curb ramps will be updated to meet current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. The village of Embarrass may replace their sanitary sewer and water utilities.To improve safety, reconstruct the intersection of WIS 22 and Main Street in the village of Embarrass. The intersection has experienced some crashes caused by southbound WIS 22 turning right (westbound) to remain on WIS 22. It is proposed to reconstruct the curb and gutter to a new alignment and adjust pavement markings to allow for better traffic flow for larger vehicles through the intersection.
