The Door County Highway Department will begin a major road reconstruction project on County Road T in early June, with work scheduled along a 4.2-mile stretch from State Highway 42/57 to the Lily Bay boat launch.
The project will include cutting driveways and intersections, pulverizing the existing asphalt surface, regrading and compacting the roadway, paving 3.5 inches of hot mix asphalt in two layers, shouldering and centerline striping.
Initial work is scheduled for the week of June 1. Crews will then regrade and compact the roadway before paving operations are expected to begin the week of June 15. Paving is anticipated to take about two weeks.
The anticipated completion date for the project, excluding final striping, is July 9, weather permitting.
County officials said County Road T will remain open to traffic throughout construction, although lane closures and temporary road closures may occur during paving operations. Flaggers will direct traffic when necessary. Motorists are asked to obey flaggers and avoid driving on freshly treated surfaces.
The highway department also urged drivers to use caution around construction crews, equipment and posted signage throughout the duration of the project.
