The City of Milwaukee is making improvements to streets throughout the Burnham Park neighborhood to reduce reckless driving, speeding, dangerous crossings, and crashes resulting in injury and death - especially around schools, churches, and parks.

Join us for an update on the traffic safety improvements coming to the neighborhood between Fall 2024 and Fall 2025 including changes to W. Burnham Street, S. 35th Street, and different neighborhood streets. Come learn more about the changes coming to make the neighborhood safer, ask questions, and share your thoughts!
