Ramp in Zoo Interchange reopens to traffic

MILWAUKEE -- The ramp closed in the Zoo Interchange for nearly 20 hours has been reopened on Saturday, August 20th -- earlier than expected. The closure was set to take 31 hours beginning Friday night, August 19th.

According to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT), the closure was scheduled to remain in effect until 6:00 a.m. Sunday, however, crews successfully set the girders over I-94 east early.

The work required eastbound I-94 to be completely shut down at WIS 100 along with the system ramps from I-894 and I-41/US 45 to I-94 westbound being closed. The ramp closures began at 10:00 p.m. with I-94 being shut down at 11:00 p.m.
