3-16-17 highway 23 project-sheboygan county administrator

todayMarch 16, 2017

The Sheboygan County administrator says he’s concerned that a Highway 23 expansion project has lost its momentum and isn’t sure when it would resume even if a federal lawsuit is resolved today.  Adam Payne says  the estimated cost to complete the project has increased nearly four times original projections when the project was first enumerated nearly two decades ago.  Payne says unfortunately the governor’s proposed state budget eliminates funding for Highway 23, delaying the project for at least another three years.  The project to widen 23 to four lanes between Fond du lac and Plymouth has been on hold since a lawsuit was filed in 2014 to halt the project.
