Construction on 124th Street Has Finally Begun

After several years of finger crossing and hand wrenching, 124th Street is getting a much needed upgrade.

Residents were informed of the road's improvements through a letter from the city's engineering division this week after work commenced Monday, April 23.

"It's wonderful that after years of delay this terrible road is being fixed," Greenfield Mayor Michael Neitzke said.

Director of Neighborhood Services Richard Sokol in late March.

The entrances to the project area will be barricaded, but local traffic access will be maintained with some limitations during the course of construction. Residents were made aware that access to their propery and driveways could be impacted by machinery and equipment.

The road project is scheduled to be near completion in October 2012.

The City of New Berlin is the lead agency of the project. Residents are urged to call 414-425-1956 with concerns.
