Getting around Janesville’s north side may be a little more challenging the next two nights. The Department of Transportation is warning motorists both directions of Highway 26-Milton Avenue will be closed under Interstate 39/90 in Janesville from 8 p.m. til 5 a.m. Wednesday and Thursday nights. No left turns will be permitted from the Interstate exit ramps to Highway 26 to travel under the bridge. Motorists will be required to use alternate local routes during the overnight closures, such as the Highway 14 interchange and Deerfield Drive. Work crews will be setting girders for the new southbound Interstate bridge over Highway 26. Motorists are reminded to be alert for crews and equipment in the area, and allow extra time to safely reach their destination. The work operations and road closures are weather dependent and subject to change.
