As crews begin gas line replacement on Michigan Street in Sturgeon Bay on Wednesday, you must take alternate routes for the next several weeks. City Engineer Chad Shefchik says replacing gas lines on a section of Michigan Street will require frequent temporary “soft” roadway closures between South 10th Avenue and North 4th Avenue on Michigan Street. The closure during the work days will have staggered barricades to close off only the blocks that KS Energies will be actively working on. Thru traffic will be allowed only for emergency service vehicles and those needing access to their homes or businesses. Shefchik adds that reduced traffic will increase the safety for the work crews and the general public while allowing for the fastest possible completion of the project.
