US 8, US 10 lane closures Oct. 9 in Lincoln and Waupaca counties

September 25, 2009

Motorists can expect to encounter flagging operations and lane closures on the following highways beginning this week:

• US 8, between US 51 and the Price County line, in Lincoln County.
• US 10, between the Portage County line and Winnebago County line, in Waupaca County.

The lane closures are necessary so construction crews can complete roadway maintenance. Work is scheduled for completion by the end of the day Oct. 9, 2009.

Motorists can expect to encounter periodic delays between the hours of 6 a.m. and 7 p.m. Motorists should also be alert for slow moving vehicles, heavy construction equipment and turning trucks within the work zone. To avoid any potential delays motorists may want to use alternate routes.

The work requires favorable weather conditions and is subject to change.
