Project Overview
The Town of Cedarburg reconstructed Columbia Road from Bridge Road to west of 1st Avenue, providing a two-lane undivided cross-section with on-street bicycle accommodations, sidewalk facilities, and curb & gutter. This created a safer, more pedestrian-friendly environment and closed the existing 2,000’ gap in sidewalk connectivity between the City of Cedarburg and Village of Grafton. The project also reduced congestion, promoted smooth traffic flow, and provided access to downtown Cedarburg and the Aurora Medical Center. By connecting the three communities, encouraging pedestrian and bicycle transportation, and promoting economic growth, the reconstruction of Columbia Road was an important project for the 30,000 residents and employers in the area.
