Bayview Bridge closure offers more tricks than treats for motorists

Sturgeon Bay City Engineer Chad Shefchik is hopeful a planned closure of the Bayview Bridge this Halloween will be over before your kids start trick or treating. Due to scheduling conflicts, the Wisconsin Department of Transportation had to move work on the Bayview Bridge to October 30th and 31st from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.. Crews will fix the steel traffic barrier on the lift span and weld tie-off points to maintain the center lock. They will also do their usual fall cleaning of the deck drains and joints while tending to concrete repairs if Mother Nature allows. The bridge will be closed to pedestrians and vehicles on those two days, but boats can still pass underneath. Since the bridge’s detour takes motorists through downtown Sturgeon Bay, the hope is that the work will be completed before trick-or-treating begins.
