Town of Plymouth Roundup: I-43 Work, Maple Fest, Spring Election Results
The Town of Plymouth heads into mid-April with major highway construction underway, spring election results in, and community events drawing families outdoors.
I-43 Construction Underway in Sheboygan County
A major Interstate 43 resurfacing and structure rehabilitation project is now underway in Sheboygan County, affecting drivers traveling between Wilson/Lima Road and WIS 42. The $21 million state project covers more than 10 miles and is expected to continue through November 2026.
According to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation’s 2026 construction preview, motorists should expect lane and ramp restrictions throughout the season. Drivers commuting from the Town of Plymouth toward Sheboygan or Milwaukee should plan for slower travel times, use zipper merges where posted, and remain alert in work zones.
WisDOT has emphasized that this is part of a broader statewide construction season, with I-43 in Sheboygan County listed among the higher-impact regional projects.
WIS 67 Resurfacing Plans Affect Plymouth Area
In addition to interstate work, WisDOT continues planning improvements along nearly 10 miles of WIS 67 in Sheboygan County. The project spans portions of the towns of Mitchell, Greenbush, and Plymouth, as well as the City of Plymouth.
While construction timing details are still being finalized, residents who rely on WIS 67 for access to Plymouth, Elkhart Lake, and surrounding rural areas should monitor updates for potential detours or phased work later this season.
Spring Election Results Across Wisconsin
Voters went to the polls April 7 for the 2026 Spring Election. Statewide, 46 of 75 school referendum questions passed, according to unofficial results reported by county clerks.
While individual ballot measures varied by district, the results reflect continued debate over school funding across Wisconsin. For residents in and around the Plymouth Joint School District, the outcome underscores how closely divided many education funding questions remain statewide, with several measures passing or failing by narrow margins.
Local officials are expected to review final certified results in the coming days.
Maple Fest Draws Families to Plymouth
The Plymouth Maple Association hosts Maple Fest on April 11 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at City Park in Plymouth. The annual spring event celebrates the region’s maple syrup heritage with family-friendly activities and local vendors.
With mild temperatures forecast this weekend before showers move in, organizers anticipate strong turnout. Residents should keep an eye on the weather, as rain and thunderstorms are possible later Saturday evening into Sunday.
What’s Next
Town residents should expect ongoing highway impacts throughout the construction season and stay tuned for additional updates from town officials as road planning and spring projects move forward.
