The 1300 block of E Wilson Street is out of commission for sewer replacement. A bicycle detour is being signed that will get people around this construction. Heading inbound the detour will bring bicyclists along the following route
At the traffic signal at the bike path/Riverside/Winnebago/Williamson turn left onto Riverside turn right onto the Jenifer St ped/bike bridge over the Yahara River continue towards downtown on Jenifer St turn right onto Baldwin St cross Williamson St and continue on Baldwin turn left onto Wilson St and you are back on the regular route The detour works the same in reverse, heading outbound - - take Baldwin across Williamson to Jenifer, over the ped/bike bridge and up Riverside back to the path. This might not be completely signed until Monday, but construction staging started yesterday and they might be working on Saturday. Please help spread the word and reduce the conflicts and ill will with people who live on the 1300 block of Wilson Street (who are unhappy with bicyclists on the sidewalks conflicting with their kids playing on the sidewalks) and with construction workers.
