We are planning to resurface Highway 44 from Spring Grove to Hokah, a nearly 22‑mile corridor. This is the first step in a multi‑year process that will lead to future construction projects.

At this early stage, the project team is gathering information about the highway. This will help us understand and prioritize what improvements are needed before moving into detailed design and construction in later phases.

Project goals
As we plan for future construction, the project work will include resurfacing the roadway. It will also look for ways to improve:

  • Safety for people driving, walking, biking, and rolling
  • How well traffic flows
  • Access to homes, farms, businesses, and local roads
  • Bicycle and pedestrian connections
  • Traffic calming in communities along the corridor

Public feedback

Thank you to everyone who has shared their feedback about the road. We've connected with over 100 community members through an online comment map, during a public meeting on April 28, 2026 and at a pop-up event at Red's IGA on May 1, 2026. Look at the summary of comments to see what we've heard.
