The construction project that commenced on July 8 on the U.S. Highway 12 “bypass” between the Walworth/Rock County line and Cox Road has been completed, and the detour signage was removed by early afternoon on Saturday, August 10. The work consisted of repaving the shoulders and adding rumble strips both in the center and sides of the highway.

Only one major detour remains in the city, that being Fremont Road from Starin Road to Whitewater Creek. The original anticipated completion date for that project was September 1.
