- WIS 96 provides a vital system linkage between I-43, the Fox River and the surrounding communities. These improvements will address the deteriorating roadway surface and the deteriorating bridge structure east of the County Road X intersection. Improvements will extend the pavement service life and decrease future maintenance costs. It will also provide a smoother driving surface for motorists. Repair and replacement of culverts help ensure adequate drainage to mitigate possible flooding. New rumble strips will alert drivers who leave the travel lane. This provides an enhanced opportunity for driver correction and help mitigate run-off-the-road incidents.
