PREAMBLE
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) has a project to replace the pavement and curb and gutter, install street lighting, traffic signal improvements, and spot utility replacement on STH113 (East Johnson Street, Pennsylvania Avenue, Packers Avenue and Northport Drive) from First Street to Knutson Drive. The Project is planned to take place through November of 2011.

1. Sawcutting of concrete pavements after the pouring of the pavement must be done about 12 hours after the installation. The concrete must be hard enough to hold the machinery. The sawcutting must be done soon enough so that the sawcutting occurs before the pavement cracks.
2. Completing the work at night allows for the least amount of disruption to normal daily traffic.
The proposed activities beyond the hours of 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM are as follows:
1. Electrical work to allow for the construction of temporary signal systems at signalized intersections.
2. Concrete removal (no breaking of concrete pavement shall take place between the hours of 9:00 PM and 7:00 AM, and shall not take place between the hours of 7:00 PM and 7:00 AM within 1000 feet of the intersection of Elka Lane and 1602 Northport Drive), grading, utility installation, base course placement, and paving operations in intersections, as necessary per DOT closure restrictions.
3. Weekend work and night work in the Commercial Avenue, International Lane, Aberg Avenue on/off ramps, School Road, and Dryden Drive intersections.
4. Placement of surface asphalt layer under traffic on entire project.
5. Installation of permanent traffic signals, signs, and ...
