Project location

WIS 83, I-43 (Mukwonago) to WIS 16 (Hartland), in Waukesha County.

Project overview

WIS 83 is an important north-south highway serving regional traffic as well as local traffic generated by development along the highway.

The 17-mile section of WIS 83, Waukesha County NN to WIS 16, has been studied to determine how to best meet the long-term transportation needs of the corridor.

Corridor study determined five projects were necessary to accommodate the growing traffic volumes and improve safety along the corridor:

WIS 16 and WIS 83 interchange, Capital Drive to Campus Drive, reconstruct and expand four lanes
I-94 to WIS 16, resurface the existing lanes - Golf Road to north of Cardinal Lane
High Meadow Lane to I-94, resurface the existing lanes
County DE to High Meadow Lane, reconstruct and expand four lanes
County NN to WIS 59
- Reconstruct County NN to County X, four lanes
- Construct two lanes on ultimate four lane from County X to Walnut/Seville
- Two lane curb and gutter from Walnut/Seville to Old Village Road
- Widen shoulders and improve signals from Old Village Road to WIS 59

First project, I-94 to WIS 16, started spring 2008.
