Josh, I attended a preconstruction meeting in Shorewood Hills this morning, and other than which contractors would be working on which utilities and when (which will not affect the traffic control), I didn't get any more information than I've already given you.
I will pass your request for more information along to the Village Administrator for Shorewood Hills, and I'd suggest you keep an eye on their website for more info. The traffic control plan I outlined in my email below will still allow for the movements you make between the Campus Dr bike path and Marshall Ct on University Bay Drive, though there will not be a two way left turn lane in which to stage those movements. And the congestion there is likely to encourage lots of folks to look for alternates. Unfortunately there aren't really any good alternates. On the bright side, when the project is done, there will be a dedicated northbound bike lane on the east (uphill) side of University Bay Drive, and "sharrows" (http://www.sfmta.com/cms/bsafe/28372.html) on the southbound side of the street from the end of Highland all the way to University Ave. Chuck Strawser Pedestrian & Bicycle Transportation Planner Commuter Solutions Transportation Services UW-Madison Room 124 WARF 610 Walnut St Madison WI 53726 608-263-2969 www.wisc.edu/trans From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Josh Mayer Sent: Monday, July 09, 2012 1:59 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Bikies] University Bay Drive and Marshall Ct Hi Chuck, Do you know where I could find more info about this project? Specifically I'm wondering how it will impact my commute during the project and after. Typically I come in on Marshall and meet up with the Campus Drive bike path and on the way home I use the left turn lane from University Bay back onto Marshall (this is all after I make my way through the University Ave construction zone of horrors). I realize this isn't your project but I couldn't find any info on Shorewood Hills' website. Thanks...

The project includes several phases and multiple contractors, so things will change throughout the process, but it is expected to last well into the fall.
