Can I get there from here? Summer road work to tie up campus traffic

The traffic tie-up of the summer, hands down, should be the shutdown of Park Street from Johnson Street to University Avenue.

But thatâ??s only one of a half-dozen street projects beginning Monday in the UW-Madison campus area, projects that will cause a summer of headaches for commuters heading into and out of downtown from the west side.

The work centers around the final phase of the East Campus Utility Project, according to the UW-Madison facilities department.
