Richmond Street bridge over I-41 to reopen soon, here's what we know

Drivers in the Fox Cities once again have full access to Appleton and Grand Chute via the Richmond Street/State 47 exit from Interstate 41. While the exit's on- and off-ramps opened in late October , commuters have awaited the completion of the overpass itself, making detours via Meade and Gillett streets to simply cross the interstate – or detours to Ballard Road or Northland Avenue, depending on where you needed to get via the interstate – a thing of the past. The bridge was closed and demolished in May as part of the ongoing I-41 project , which runs through 2030 and will reconstruct 23 miles of the interstate between Grand Chute and De Pere from four lanes to six and reconstruct a number of overpasses and underpasses to make room for the expansion, in addition to other improvements. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation in a Nov. 13 email to residents announced the bridge would reopen early in the week of Nov. 16. Richmond Street's new interchange looks different, what happened? Richmond is the third of three Appleton-area exits to be transformed from a traditional interchange into a diverging diamond as part of this project, behind Northland Avenue and Ballard

Interstate 41 frontage roads on Outagamie, Brown county line reopen

Two frontage roads near the Interstate 41/Outagamie County U interchange on the border of Outagamie and Brown counties are now open. West Frontage Road, between Wrightstown Road and U, and French Road between Brown County DDD and Apple Creek Road, both reopened Nov. 13. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation closed the road segments in late August as part of the ongoing I-41 project , which runs through 2030 and will reconstruct 23 miles of the interstate between Grand Chute and De Pere from four lanes to six and reconstruct a number of overpasses and underpasses to make room for the expansion, in addition to other improvements. There's still more to be done in this area, however. According to the WisDOT project website , Mid Valley Drive, between U and Golden Glow Road, will be closed for about a month in 2027, though details on the exact closure date are not yet available. Work on the interstate mainline from Outagamie County JJ in Town of Kaukauna to Miners Way in Town of Lawrence, which includes the I-41/U interchange, began in spring 2025, and is expected to wrap up in fall 2027. This falls between the completion dates of the other two

Drafted Green Bay budget for 2027 draws scrutiny over neighborhoods

Green Bay's Joint Finance and Personnel Committee on Nov. 12 endorsed Mayor Eric Genrich's proposed city budget for 2027, the mayor's last and largest spending proposal . There was little debate and few revisions save for discussion about funding to neighborhood associations. Barring changes at the City Council's Nov. 17 meeting, a $149.6 million fund will cover much of the city's expenses in 2027. The city will collect $75.6 million from property taxes, including tax increment districts. The property tax rate will rise by 3%, increasing to $8.62 for every $1,000 of assessed property value. The committee recommended adding $45,000 to hire a part-time liaison who would aid the operations of Green Bay Neighborhoods , a separate organization that oversees the city's network of neighborhood associations. City Council President Alyssa Proffitt made the recommendation. City Council member Kathy Hinkfuss has said the city should invest more in its neighborhoods. Many associations, in recent years, have seen their membership crater and participation drop. Four associations in the city became inactive this year, including the association's 50th neighborhood called Badger Tracks, according to Tarl Knight, the organization's chairman. Knight, along with a cohort of neighborhood association members and presidents, painted the money

LETTER: Appleton reader looks ahead after election, says work isn't done

We did it, my Appleton and Fox Cities friends! Together with millions of other Americans, we sent a loud and clear message to President Trump that we are fed up not only with many of his policies – tariffs, the war with Iran, immigration actions which led to the killings of Americans and others, tax policies benefiting millionaires and billionaires, siding with brutal dictators over traditional allies, and more – but with Congressional Republicans in both the House and Senate who acquiesced to Trump in most of these policies. Our work is not yet done. We need to be vigilant in the next two months leading up to a transition of power in Washington. We will see if the Trump administration attempts any shenanigans to alter the results of the election. Finally, we need to hold Democrats accountable as their new majorities provide opportunities to work for and produce legislation benefiting all Americans.

Between Green Bay And Lake Michigan Is A Scenic Nature Escape With Fishing, Boating, And Trails

Wisconsin set aside approximately six million acres — that's nearly 20 percent of the whole state — for public use. Its state park system, which includes 50 state parks and 15 state forests, sees more than 20 million visits each year. But they aren't the only spots open for people to enjoy. The Badger State has 260 state wildlife areas, as well. One of these, the C.D. Besadny Fish and Wildlife Area, is a much quieter spot to go hiking, fishing, and boating.
