Motorists can expect some interruptions during their commute through Sturgeon Bay later this month.

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation has begun its spring bridge inspection schedule for the state’s lift bridges, which are primarily located in northeast Wisconsin. Inspections wrapped up in Manitowoc, Sheboygan and Winnebago counties last week before crews head to Green Bay April 13-15 and Marinette on April 16.

Crews will then move to Sturgeon Bay beginning April 27 with the Bayview Bridge, followed by the Maple/Oregon Street Bridge on April 28 and 29. Work will wrap up May 4 with the Michigan Street Bridge.

DOT spokesperson Mark Kantola said a new website will give motorists and boaters information on what is being done and how their commute may be affected.

Sturgeon Bay bridges will receive more than inspections when they are closed from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. on those days. Maintenance on the Bayview Bridge includes concrete patching on the deck, while the Maple/Oregon Street Bridge will be washed underneath and have delaminated epoxy removed.
