Wood County, Wisconsin

The Wood County Highway Department is considering an undertaking located on County Trunk Highway (CTH) M from CTH P to the Wood/Marathon County line.  Wood County Highway will be replacing the pavement on CTH M and proposes improvements at the intersections with CTH H and CTH Y.  The County is proposing a single lane roundabout for the CTH H & M intersection.  The CTH Y intersection would have right turn lanes added.  Minor real estate acquisitions are anticipated for this project.  The CTH H & M intersection would be closed during construction.  No detour has been proposed at this time.  Traffic will have access to local residences.  Construction is tentatively scheduled for 2028.

The County has scheduled a Public Involvement Meeting to provide information about this project and gather input.  You are invited to attend the meeting scheduled for:
