Notice of Road Work
CTH DK – Cemetery Road to Junction Road

The Door County Highway Department will begin a road reconstruction project on County Road DK, from Cemetery Road to Junction Road. The work will consist of cutting of driveways and intersections, pulverizing existing asphalt, grading and compaction, paving, shouldering, and centerline striping.

The cutting of driveways, intersections, and the pulverizing will take place the week of August 17, 2026. The roadway will then be graded and compacted. Paving is anticipated to start the week of August 24, 2026 and will take 2 -3 days. After a short cure period the road will then be shouldered, and stripped.

The road will be open to traffic at all times. Paving operations may require lane closures, or temporary road closures, at which time flagmen will be used to control traffic. An oil adhesive will be applied between the two lifts of asphalt so we ask that you adhere to flagman and avoid driving on the oil surface.

The expected completion date, without the centerline striping, is September 10, 2026. As with any road construction project, the work is controlled by favorable weather. We apologize for any inconvenience that may occur. Please be advised to use caution when traveling around road construction equipment and crews and obey all signage.

The week of April 20 - 24, 2026 is
NATIONAL WORK ZONE AWARENESS WEEK

Below are sevearl work zone safety tips as posted by WisDOT

- Eliminate distractions like eating, drinking, talking on the phone, or fiddling with electronic devices.
- Expect the unexpected. Speed limits may be reduced, traffic lanes may be changed, and people and vehicles may be working on or near the road.
- Slow down. A car traveling 60 mph travels 88 feet per second, and the faster you go the longer it takes to stop. Give yourself room. Rear-end collisions are the most common work zone crashes, so don’t tailgate. Allow yourself about four seconds of braking distance. At 60 mph, this equates to about 350 feet.
- Look for signs. Orange, diamond-shaped signs usually give you ample warning of lane closings, construction areas, and flaggers and other workers ahead.
- Be patient. If you don’t see workers, that doesn’t mean they’re not there. Observe the signs until you see one that says you’ve left the work zone.
- Plan ahead. Leave early or map out an alternate route. Find the latest road conditions and work zone news at 511 Wisconsin.
Follow the law. Slow down and move over, if possible, when you see flashing lights.

Please help protect our workers and yourselves by following these simple guidelines.
