The reroute is part of a wider construction pattern on WIS 47 and WIS 55. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation project includes culvert replacements and mill-and-overlay work. During culvert replacements, the highways are closed to traffic with detours, while paving and other operations use single-lane closures with flagging.
The 511 Wisconsin schedule for the WIS 47 and WIS 55 Menominee County project was last updated July 10 and runs from June 22 to Oct. 30, 2026. WIS 47 in Menominee County was closed to through traffic from County Road VV West to the Langlade County line, with the closure expected to last until the middle of August. Local traffic and emergency services were to be maintained through that stretch, and Northeast Asphalt held an informational meeting June 23 at Wolf River Development Company in Keshena.
The tribe also scheduled another construction information meeting for Tuesday, July 14 at 3 p.m. at Wolf River Development Company, W2828 Go Around Road, Keshena. Menominee County’s Highway Department had already flagged the Highway 55 and County M East corridor for a public information meeting in 2025, inviting stakeholders to Menominee Casino & Resort in Keshena on June 18 for an intersection reconstruction project.
