Sidewalk Closed: Use Other Side (Mineral Point Road in Madison)


Listen Later

The sidewalk is closed for construction of a multifamily development on Madison's West side. But the closure is along Madison's High Injury Network, right in front of a ghost bike placed only months ago for Taylor Dunn. In October another person was killed walking only a couple blocks down. There is no nearby or reasonably safe crosswalk.

Location: Mineral Point Road between Ganser Way and D'onofrio Drive.
