According to a letter received from Tim Rank, WisDOT Project Manager, after meeting with local officials in addition to holding a public involvement meeting in July, the overall response from these meetings indicated the need for a higher level improvement in comparison to the proposed resurfacing project.
The Town of Greenville Town Board adopted a resolution in July supporting the reconstructing of this section of STH 76. Outagamie County is in the process of approving a similar resolution.
According to Rank, "After further evaluation of local concerns, establishing funding availability and reviewing WIS 76 corridor needs, WisDOT, the Town of Greenville and Outagamie County have worked out a plan to reconstruct WIS 76 from Everglade to County JJ. Improvements will include a compromise of past alternatives." These past alternatives included urbanization, pedestrian and bicycle improvements, intersection improvements at Glen Valley Drive and a roundabout at CTH JJ.
DOT officials plan to hold another public involvement meeting in the next 12 months to provide an update on the details of this plan, along with a schedule, budget and other project related impacts.
