13th And Drexel 'Too Congested' For Holiday Travel: Oak Creek

OAK CREEK, WI -- If you're out and about over the Thanksgiving weekend, city officials are asking the public to steer clear of area road construction in order to get where you need to go in a timely fashion.

"Please use alternate routes to the 13th St./W. Drexel Ave. intersection on weekends. It gets very congested and looks like that will continue into the near future, until the County completes the S. 13th St roadwork," city officials posted on Facebook.

Officials in Oak Creek have recommended some alternate routes in the short term.

"Use alternate routes, including the College, Rawson or Ryan on/off ramps from I-94 and S. 27th Street, Puetz or Howell to get around the traffic congestion," officials wrote.
