5 issues in roads with high priority
South Grandview Road temporary bridge repairs
The city awarded a $151,571.25 contract to Norcon Corporation for temporary repairs to the S. Grandview Road bridge.
Three-way stop at Greenbrier and Manitowoc Roads
A pedestrian was hit at this intersection earlier this year, and drivers average 34-35 mph in a 25 mph zone with no sidewalks nearby. The new three-way stop should balance delays and make crossings safer; sidewalk work is complicated because part of the area lies in the Village of Bellevue.
Traffic Calming Policy overhaul
Ald. Delie's detailed critique of the city's 2007 Traffic Calming Policy — which has never produced a single physical calming installation — was referred to staff for review and amendment.
Construction communication improvements
Commissioner Refsguard found out via the Packers website that Metro would run regular game day service for the Badger game — without Metro being consulted. Better coordination on special event service is needed.
Street reconstruction and bridge maintenance funding
The Nitschke Bridge closes June 1-19, Shawn Avenue gets lane closures June 8-12, and a Grandview Road bridge stays closed two to three months pending a re-bid of repairs. Truck traffic will need alternate routes during the Shawn Avenue work.
