Anton Drive Planning Study
Adopted March 28, 2017
The City of Fitchburg, in partnership with Wingra Stone and Dane County BUILD, and with oversight provided by the Anton Drive Steering Committee, developed the Anton Drive Redevelopment Plan. MSA Professional Services was contracted as the lead consultant to develop the Plan.
The Anton Drive Redevelopment Plan is part of the Fitchburg Comprehensive Plan, serving as an amendment to Appendix A.
Anton Drive Redevelopment Plan
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) is embarking on a major reconstruction project of Verona Road, which will span the urban boundaries of the City of Fitchburg from the northern city boundary to south of County Highway PD (McKee Road). The project, which is scheduled to begin in fall 2016 and go through 2019, will include a single-point urban interchange at Verona Road and County Highway PD with Verona Road traffic to travel over PD. An interchange will also be constructed at Verona Road and Williamsburgy Way with Verona Road to travel under Williamsburg Way.
The Verona Road reconstruction project will have significant impacts to properties located along and near Verona Road with reduced visibility and direct accessibility; however, the project also allows an opportunity to examine and potentially reshape the future vision of the area. This study will help recognize and analyze the impacts and also capture and identify opportunities for land use within the plan area.
