The project plans to address deteriorated pavement, replace cable barrier and guardrail, and address inadequate Oversize/Overweight truck movements at the U.S. 151 intersection.

An ongoing flooding issue near the Hickory Road interchange will also be addressed through re-grading a drainage channel in the northwest quadrant and replacing the storm sewer outletting to the Fond du Lac River in the northeast quadrant.
