Work is expected to last until July 2022.

Plans include water main replacements, adding a fourth vehicle lane where space allows, upgrading traffic controls and installing new lighting.

Cederburg says the cost of the 5.7-mile (9-kilometer) project has yet to be determined.

Most work will occur from 2 a.m. to 10 a.m. Monday through Thursday, and lane restrictions will vary.

Cederburg says officials hope to keep at least two lanes open in each direction during non-work hours.
