Project Overview

The City of Milwaukee - Department of Public Works (DPW) is making improvements to S. Kinnickinnic Avenue (STH 32) between E. Holt Avenue and S. Fulton Street to slow speeds and curb reckless driving.

The project is in the design phase and the earliest anticipated construction is 2026.

Throughout the summer of 2025, DPW engineers and field survey crews have been onsite gathering information on the existing conditions of the street, such as geometry, elevations and utility locations to aide in preparation of design plans for traffic calming improvements.

DPW anticipates holding a public meeting in Fall 2025 to share preliminary designs and ask for feedback.

The project update below shares the current status of the preliminary design and proposed treatments. This is subject to change prior to the public meeting.
