Egg Harbor road project finishes ahead of schedule, no fall work planned
You can thank Mother Nature and good timing for the lack of construction cones in the Village of Egg Harbor now and later this fall. After beginning work in January, the village wrapped up its portion of the improvements to State Highway 42 last Friday. The project allowed the village to bury utilities, extend sidewalks, and create additional parking spots along the highway. The original plan was to work through Memorial Day, take the summer off, and resume work in the fall. The mild winter allowed the early work to progress much quicker, allowing the village to coordinate some of its roadwork with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation when they began their projects on either side of the downtown corridor in the spring. As a result, Village Administrator Megan Sawyer is thrilled to welcome visitors for its Independence Day celebrations and say goodbye to construction with only some tree plantings scheduled for the fall.
