A major road construction project has been announced for the northwest side of Sheboygan.
Starting next week Tuesday (July 5th), the three-quarter-mile stretch of North Avenue from North Taylor and Calumet Drives will be closed off to through traffic to allow for the repairing of sanitary and storm sewers.
Crews will also repair and replace crosswalks, fix the concrete pavement, and apply a new asphalt surface.
Residents and businesses within the work zone will still be accessible through the use of cross streets, but all other traffic will have to use a detour which will run on Geele Avenue and Calumet Drive.
The project is expected to take about two months to complete.
