Update: Capital Square Street Reconstruction

posted 

Beginning on Monday, May 2nd, S&L Underground will continue the Capital Square construction project by starting work on N Pinckney St between E Washington Ave and N Hamilton St and on E Mifflin St between N Hamilton Ave and Wisconsin Ave. 
 
Work will also continue on the Capital Square between Wisconsin Ave and W Washington Ave. 
 
There will be intermittent weekday closures of the Wisconsin Ave and Mifflin St intersection and the N Hamilton St and Pinckney St intersection.    
 
The Dane County Farmers’ Market will operate as usual.  However, during Saturday Farmers’ Markets, motorized traffic will not be allowed on S Pinckney St between E Main St and E Washington Ave due to the Farmers’ Market Food Court, and motorized traffic will not be allowed on the Capital Square between Wisconsin Ave and W Washington Ave as a pedestrian safety measure.
 
The Crazylegs Classic run/walk will take place on the Capital Square as usual this Saturday, April 30th. 
 
Temporary pavement will be put down in order for Art Fair on the Square to operate as usual on July 9th and 10th. 
 
Throughout the project, the parking lane on the left side and the travel lane adjacent to it will remain open with the exception of two separate closures.  Wisconsin Ave to W Washington Ave will be closed to traffic for four weeks starting on Sunday, May 22nd.  E Washington Ave to Wisconsin Ave will be closed for three weeks in July.
 
The estimated completion date for the project is mid August. 
 
Metro Transit continues their detour to the Outer Loop.  The detour route can be found here:
