Construction Schedule Map (Click to open PDF)

The I-41 Project began construction in early spring 2024. The project will reconstruct and expand 23 miles of I-41 from four lanes to six lanes between WIS 96 (Wisconsin Avenue) in Appleton and County F (Scheuring Road) in De Pere.

The project will reconstruct the system interchange at the junction of I-41 and WIS 441, and it will reconstruct or improve the nine existing service interchanges on this corridor. A new service interchange at I-41 and Southbridge Road will also be constructed.

The project plans to replace the Wrightstown Safety and Weight Enforcement Facility with a new building that will combine the Wrightstown Post and SWEF for the Northeast Region.
