The Wisconsin Department of Transportation reminds you that State Highway 57 is not the only place you will find work crews next week. After inspecting the Bayview Bridge last week, inspectors will be back in town to look at the Maple/Oregon Bridge on April 29th before moving to the Michigan Street Bridge on April 30th and May 1st. The bridges will be fully closed all three days between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. to allow the inspections to occur.  Marine traffic will be allowed under all three bridges during the inspections. DOT Bureau of Structures Lift Bridge Program Manager Jim McDowell says drones will assist in some of their inspection work of the Maple/Oregon Street Bridge, while the Michigan Street Bridge will get a little extra TLC when crews are in town.

While you can’t use the bridge for motorist or pedestrian use during the inspections, they will be open for marine traffic all three days.
