Monona Drive Construction

Monona Drive Construction
Reconstion of Monona Drive is a joint project between the Cities of Monona and Madison, Dane County and the State Department of Transportation. Significant planning and design work has already been completed, with input from numerous businesses and other constituents who use the road. Monona Drive Phase 1 construction will begin in 2009 and continue into 2010 for the Broadway/Pflaum Road segment. Additional segments will be constructed subsequent to phase 1. All transportation projects for the County have to be approved by the Metropolitan Area Transportation Planning Committee, to which I was appointed in April, 2008. Monona Drive is both a City and County Road, and thus has been included in their Transportation Improvement Plan and money is included in the 2009 county budget.
