151 Main Street Project Update Week of September 19th, 2011 (City of Sun Prairie Engineering Department)

The following activities are scheduled for the week of Sept. 19th:

• Mainline paving will continue on Friday Sept. 16th 
• Work on finishing the A ramp (Northbound off ramp to Main Street) and the D ramp (Southbound on ramp to 151 and Madison) 
• Traffic controls from the previous are scheduled to remain the same 
• Curb and gutter work will also continue on to O'Keeffe Ave. 

Truck Traffic Advisory:

It is currently very difficult for large trucks to make a left turn onto Main Street from the SB 151 ramp. These trucks may want to either 1) turn right and go around the Round-a-bout to go east bound on Main Street, or 2) they could go up to the 151-CTH C - Reiner Rd interchange and turn around to head NB on 151and exit on to Main Street. This right turn is much easier for large trucks.

Note that there are no turns onto Main Street from O'Keeffe Ave. Persons travelling this route are advised that construction is likely to be occurring on Saturdays for the next several weeks. People are also strongly encouraged to continue to slow down and watch for construction workers and equipment at all times in the construction zone.

The next business meeting is scheduled for September 22nd at 9:00 a.m.
