US 41 Expansion, Brown County (De Pere to Suamico) US 41 is a major north-south transportation corridor of significant importance to northeast Wisconsin and Brown County. Locally, it is a vital connection between the communities of the Fox River Valley and Green Bay. Regionally, it links the population centers of northeastern Wisconsin and upper Michigan to the Milwaukee and Chicago metropolitan areas. It is part of the National Highway System, and is a federal/state long-truck route. The segment of US 41 from Milwaukee to Green Bay has been identified as being eligible for interstate designation once upgraded to interstate standards. It is classified as a multi-lane backbone route on the Wisconsin Department of Transportation’s (WisDOT) Corridors 2020 plan, which allocates high priority funding to highways connecting major regions and economic centers.
The Brown County portion of the expansion project will begin at Orange Lane and extend approximately 14 miles north to County M (Lineville Road). The project will reconstruct the existing freeway with additional lanes to safely and efficiently accommodate the existing and future traffic wishing to use the facility.
Eight interchanges along US 41 will be reconstructed to meet current design standards. These interchanges include:
- County F (Scheuring Road)
- County G (Main Avenue)
- County AAA (Oneida Street/Waube Lane)
- County VK (Lombardi Avenue)
- WIS 54 (Mason Street)
- WIS 29/WIS 32 (Shawano Avenue/Dousman Street)
- US 141/County HS (Velp Avenue)
- I-43
The freeway design will allow for the future installation of Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) technologies should they become necessary to manage traffic congestion. These systems provide traffic information to motorists and monitor ramp metering.
Noise walls will be constructed along US 41 from WIS 172 to WIS 54.
WIS 29 will be reconstructed between County J and Taylor Street concurrently with the US 41 work. The WIS 29 work includes:A grade separation of the County J/WIS 29 intersection.
- A frontage road between County J and Packerland Drive.
- An interchange at Packerland Drive.
- WIS 29 will connect to US 41 with a free flow freeway-to-freeway type interchange.
- Reconstruction of Taylor Street between Dousman Street and the railroad crossing south of Shawano Avenue.
- Construction of a shared use path along the north side of Shawano Avenue from Pamperin Park to Taylor Street.
In 2003, an improvement project was done on US 41 from Lombardi Avenue to I-43 in Brown County. The improvement project was repairs needed to extend the life of the pavement and bridges until they could be reconstructed as part of this US 41 capacity expansion project.
