On Saturday, Sept. 12, Hartford Avenue will be closed from Oakland to Downer avenues, and parking lots located off Hartford Avenue will not be accessible.

Access Map of Project Impacts

Hartford Avenue traffic will be one-way

Once the project is complete, Hartford Avenue will carry eastbound-only traffic from just east of the NWQ Garage drive to Downer Avenue. The section of Hartford Avenue between the NWQ Garage drive and Oakland Avenue will remain two-way. Drivers exiting Lot 20 Cunningham will continue to be able to turn either left or right. Once the Hartford Avenue drive aisle to NWQ Garage reopens, drivers exiting NWQ Garage onto Hartford Avenue will also be able to turn either left or right.

Project benefits

The project is designed to enhance safety for all users of the roadway and improve connectivity within Milwaukee’s protected bikeway and trail network. A two-way protected bicycle lane also will be installed along the one-way stretch of roadway.
