Hwy. 35 road work within city of PdC starts Monday

Area residents have shared their confusion at recent road construction meetings regarding the Highway 35 construction starting Monday, April 2. It seems signs north of Prairie du Chien regarding the closure have caused the uncertainty. 

To clarify, the construction in question on Highway 35 has to do with the Marquette Road work within the city of Prairie du Chien. The project will occur between La Pointe and Mooney Streets, better known as, from Culver’s Restaurant to Eddie’s Irish Pub.

A public info meeting was held Wednesday, March 28, from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., in the community room at Prairie du Chien City Hall. 

Staging locations and tentative time frames for the Marquette Road/Highway 35 project are as follows: 

•Stage 1: Wells Street to Mooney Street, April 2–June 12
