I-41 News I-41 Project traffic alerts, closures and news here.

WisDOT is evaluating reconstructing 23-miles of I-41 between WIS 96 (Wisconsin Avenue) and County F (Scheuring Road) in Outagamie and Brown counties. Several improvement alternatives are being considered to help reduce congestion and update the interchanges, roadways, and bridges to current standards. The I-41 Project is important to Wisconsin and the region because it maintains and upgrades an im

portant economic link connecting the Fox River Valley with Southeast Wisconsin – two areas that contain more than half the state’s population and the majority of its workforce and manufacturing facilities.
