(WTAQ-WLUK) — A nearly $10 million reconstruction project to improve a Brown County road will start Monday.
The Brown County Highway Department signed a $9,581,485 contract to improve CTH M/Lineville Road from Belmont Road to US 41 interchange in the villages of Howard and Suamico.
The two-year project will begin March 25.
The construction in 2024 is from Belmont Road to the railroad crossing west of Velp Avenue. 2025 construction will be from Velp Avenue to US 41.
To relieve congestion, improve safety and provide an expanded roadway, County Highway M will move to four lanes with a 12-foot asphalt multi use trail located along the north side from Belmont Road to West Deerfield Road. The roundabouts will be reconstructed at Rockwell Lane, Cardinal Lane, CTH HS (Velp Ave), at Festival/Mini-mall access and Cornell Road to accommodate the new four lane roadway.
