If you can avoid driving in the southeast part of the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus area around the Kohl Center this weekend, please do so.
Thousands of students, families and friends will descend on the Kohl Center, 601 W. Dayton St., for three days of five commencement exercises, beginning Friday evening and continuing on Saturday and Sunday.
The commencement congestion will be compounded by dorm students moving out of residence halls on Johnson and Dayton Streets, as well as ongoing road and building construction.
