๐Ÿšง Oakland Avenue is getting closer to normal ๐Ÿšง

Southbound Oakland Avenue is open again between Capitol and Glendale โ€” a major milestone in Shorewoodโ€™s massive reconstruction project.

So when will it all be done?

๐Ÿ“… Substantial completion: Nov. 25
๐Ÿ“… Final completion/restoration: Dec. 31

Crews are now paving the west side of Oakland, including parking lanes, intersections and driveways. Elmdale Court west of Oakland is scheduled to reopen Monday, Sept. 28.

The roughly $5 million project includes a rebuilt roadway, utility improvements, traffic signal work and other infrastructure upgrades.

In the meantime, Oakland Avenue businesses could still use some love. The corridor remains packed with great local spots like North Shore Boulangerie, Stone Creek Coffee, Fiddleheads Coffee Roasters, Cloud Red, Draft & Vessel, Milwaukee Brat House - Shorewood, Colectivo Coffee, BlackBear Children's Boutique, Performance Running Outfitters, The Establishment Salon, and more.

๐Ÿ‘‡ Which Oakland Avenue business have you been supporting during construction?
