After postponing work earlier this month due to a better than expected inspection, the Maple/Oregon Street Bridge will close next week for bridge repairs. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation will be making concrete deck repairs, laying a polymer overlay to protect their work, marking the pavement, and rebalancing the lift spans during the month-plus long project. DOT Project Manager Jeremy Ashauer says after being built 12 years ago, the bridge was due for some work.

The bridge will be closed from May 4th to May 15th to vehicles, pedestrians, and boats, The full project is expected to be finished no later than June 19th.
