Motorists expecting to use Observatory Drive on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus will have to wait at least another week and possibly longer for roadwork to end.
The project is one of many on or near the campus that has tied up traffic and given headaches to motorists for the bulk of the summer.
Observatory Drive has been closed between North Park Street and Charter Street and the westbound lane was supposed to reopen today (Monday, Aug. 10), and the eastbound lane on Wednesday, but now it won’t happen until next week, according to university officials.
