WAUWATOSA, WI — Residents who live along a stretch of Wauwatosa Ave. will see their street get upgrades and a new surface in 2020, though the street will be closed for parts of the year. City officials say workers are set to replace old water and sewer lines and resurfacing Wauwatosa Ave. from Garfield Ave. to Milwaukee Ave. in 2020. Additionally, workers are scheduled to replace storm sewers with larger pipes to help with stormwater management. Also included on this project is the resurfacing of Melrose Avenue from 74th Street to Wauwatosa Ave. Construction is scheduled to begin in March 2020. Wauwatosa Ave. is expected to be closed to traffic through mid-August. The detour route will be Bluemound, North Avenue, and Mayfair Road.
