Significant traffic backups are expected Easter weekend near the I-90/94 work zone between Tomah and Camp Douglas, according to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation Southwest Region.

Traffic is reduced to one lane in each direction due to construction. Delays will occur in each direction Friday (April 22), Sunday (April 24) and Monday (April 25). Alternate routes are strongly recommended on those days. Portable message boards will be activated to assist motorists as backups occur.

All lanes in the 6.5 mile work zone will be open Memorial Day weekend.

Motorists can use the state’s 511 Traveler Information System at www.511wi.gov or by dialing 511 on their phone for the most current information on lane closures, incidents, and road conditions.
