E Wilson Street and E Doty Street Reconstruction
May 7, 2024 Update
Construction on this project is scheduled to start on Tuesday, May 28. The general contractor performing the city improvements will be R.G. Huston. In addition to the city street reconstruction project, MG&E will have a contractor on-site replacing underground electric facilities along E Doty Street. There is a possibility that MG&E will start construction activities prior to the May 28 start date for the city project but at this time there is not an official start date selected. This week, City Engineering will mail a notice letter to residents and property owners along the project limits notifying the construction start date and additional details regarding the proposed street improvements, restrictions during construction, and traffic control.
If you have any questions regarding the project, please reach out to the Project Engineer, Fadi El Musa Gonzalez via email at felmusagonzalez@cityofmadison.com.
