WisDOT to host I-794 Lake Interchange Study Public Update Meeting

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is hosting a public open house on May 29th to update the community on the I-794 Lake Interchange Study.

This is your chance to engage directly with WisDOT staff, review the defined alternatives—including Freeway Removal—and learn more about the upcoming Environmental Impact Statement process.

Meeting Details:

Milwaukee Marriott Downtown

625 North Milwaukee Street

Milwaukee, WI 53202

Thursday, May 29, 2025

4:00 pm – 7:00 pm (Drop in anytime)

This is a critical moment to show strong community interest in the freeway removal option, which prioritizes people, neighborhoods, and sustainable transportation over outdated highway infrastructure. Rethink 794 encourages all supporters to attend, ask questions, and share your vision for a better Milwaukee.
