On-the-road resources

As a motorist, you will find a number of on-the-road resources to help you travel easy through the construction season.

• Electronic message boards provide information about major work zones as you approach them.
• Additional signs may be posted to offer alternative routes around work zones.
• Special twenty-four hour radio broadcasts let you know what to expect.
• Flaggers - along with signs and orange barrels - will guide you safely through construction areas.
• State Patrol troopers monitor work zones to notify drivers of delays, help stranded motorists and enforce lower speed limits.

For information on road construction, call 511, or go to www.511wi.gov, or check our detour and road construction information page.
