The Wisconsin Department of Transportation – Northeast Region is reminding motorists heading to Lambeau Field on Sunday, Jan. 15 for the Green Bay Packers and New York Giants football game that some road construction continues in northeast Wisconsin.

The DOT strongly recommends motorists allow themselves additional time to reach their destinations.

Highway 41

Brown County – drivers will encounter 11-foot travel lanes and reduced shoulders in multiple locations along a 10-mile segment of highway. The speed limit is reduced to 55 mph from just south of Lombardi Avenue to Highway 29.

Winnebago County – certain segments of 16 miles of highway, from Highway 26 to Breezewood Lane, have restricted shoulders and 11-foot travel lanes, especially in the vicinity of the Highway 45 interchange area.
