McKenna Road Reconstruction

Between Dean Ave. and Greenway
McKenna reconstruction has been delayed again.  The Monona City Council has asked that the newly formed Ad Hoc Pedestrian and Bicycle Committee review the need for sidewalks in this area.  The project at this point has a goal to also address the 5 way intersection at the corners of Maywood, McKenna, and Greenway.

Bridge Rd. Reconstruction

Bridge Rd. from the intersection at Winnequah Rd. to W. Broadway is being designed to be reconstructed starting July 8th of 2019.  This project includes upsizing stormwater pipes to control a 100 year storm event as well as updating water main and sanitary sewer.  Addition of new sidewalks along the South side of Bridge Road as well as addition of new bike lanes from that will link to the bike lanes along Winnequah and Bridge Rd to the north and east and will create a connection to the bike lanes along W. Broadway Ave.  

North Winnequah Park Lagoon Dredging and PCB Removal

The City will be dredging the northern lagoon in Winnequah Park to remove PCB laden sediments and to improve water quality.  The project includes rehabilitating the shorelines as well as cleaning up the drainage ditch along the northernmost reach of the lagoon.  It will also address cleaning up around two stormater outfalls that feed into the lagoon and will provide new fish habitat and accesses for fishing.
