🛑We have received a lot of feedback regarding the temporary four-way stop at the intersection of County Road XX and Tesch Lane/Terrebonne Drive that appeared during construction.

Today, Marathon County announced the four-way stop would remain until a study could be completed.

Here's more info:
Following the completion of the County Road XX construction project, the temporary four-way stop at County Road XX and Tesch Lane/Terrebonne Drive was scheduled to be removed and the intersection returned to a two-way stop.

After the stop signs were removed on Thursday, June 18, crews observed several close calls as drivers on Tesch Lane and Terrebonne Drive had become accustomed to the four-way stop and were entering the intersection assuming cross traffic would stop.

For safety reasons, the Marathon County Highway Department has temporarily reinstated the four-way stop while an engineering study is completed. Marathon County, in coordination with the Villages of Kronenwetter and Rothschild, will review the intersection and determine whether a permanent change is appropriate.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as this intersection is evaluated with safety as the top priority.
