(WTAQ-WLUK) — An Outagamie County highway has reopened after flooding.
Wisconsin Highway 76 was is open to traffic in both directions from County D in Bear Creek to Wisconsin Highway 54 in Shiocton.
Earlier this month, historic flooding closed numerous roads in Outagamie and Waupaca counties.
Wisconsin Highway 187 in Outagamie County remains closed from County P to Wisconsin Highway 54 in Outagamie County in both directions. The closure limits have shifted south from WIS 156 to County P.
Last week, State Highway 54 in Outagamie and Waupaca counties reopened from Northport to Black Creek.
- Make sure you have the flooding tab clicked on the 511 map to view all locations of flooding.
- Never attempt to cross a water-covered road. Just 12 inches of moving water can sweep a vehicle off the road.
- Do not ignore barricades or road closure signs.
- Flash flooding can occur suddenly anywhere in the area.
- Always check current road conditions before traveling:
- Visit 511wi.gov for the latest weather and road alerts.
- Motorists should plan extra time for travel, use designated alternate routes, and exercise extreme caution in low-lying areas. Conditions may change rapidly.
