Sheboygan Area School District will release results of the Urban Middle School traffic study during a public meeting Monday.
SHEBOYGAN — Results of the Sheboygan Area School District’s traffic study on intersections surrounding the proposed Urban Middle School rebuild site will be released to the public Monday.
Earlier this year, SASD announced plans for a referendum to a rebuild both Urban and Farnsworth middle schools. The $140 million project was proposed by the district because the nearly century-old buildings need extensive repairs and upgrades.
While Farnsworth will be rebuilt on the same site, Urban will move from its current location by North High School to the corner of Mill and Najacht roads. One reason SASD proposed the move was because the proximity between the two buildings created congestion issues.

During the planning phase of the project, SASD initiated a traffic study to assess the impacts of increased traffic on intersections surrounding the proposed Urban rebuild location.
The study, now complete, was prepared by Wisconsin Department of Transportation certified engineers from Traffic Analysis & Design, a Cedarburg engineering firm.
At 6 p.m. May 6, the results of the study will be presented to the public in the Urban Middle School auditorium. Representatives from SASD and Bray Architects will be at the presentation and attendees can submit questions to be answered after the presentation.
