Reconstruction Overview
⢠Downtown Milwaukee, Wis.
⢠1968: Interchange is dedicatedand is opened to traffic Dec. 23
⢠Today:â 5-level interchange
â 300,000 vehicles per day
â 120,000 downtown jobs
â 7 million downtown visitors
⢠Problems:â Structures are at end of useful life
â High crash rates
â Increasing traffic congestion

Conclusion
⢠A 10% alternative route selection rate during peak periods is achievable when accurate, up-to-the-minute, information about delay through a work zone is provided and there is an attractive set of alternative routes
⢠No significant change in crash numbers compared to opposite direction, but observed reduction in injury frequency
⢠More detection to increase accuracy
