Plan Ahead: Marquette System Interchange Ramp To Close Monday
If you use the Marquette system ramp from I-794 to SB I-43/94, you'll want to plan for a different route due to road closures.
The Marquette system interchange ramp from I-794 to southbound I-43/94 will close on Monday, according to officials with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation.
The ramp isn’t expected to be open again until late August.
The ramp closure, which is part of the I-43 bridges rehabilitation project, is expected to be done before the Harley event this summer.

The closure had been delayed because the I-94 restriping project needed to be completed first. Now that the project is almost done, the second lane from I-794 to I-94 WB can be reopened, which allows for an auxiliary lane between the Marquette Interchange and the Stadium Interchange.
“This creates a four-lane configuration improving traffic flow out of downtown,” according to a press release from the DOT.

The Jackson ramp will also be reconstructed as a part of the I-794/Hoan Bridge rehabilitation project, which begins in late September.
The DOT recommends that motorists visit 511wi.gov to get updates on construction projects and to sign up to receive personal reports.
