Highway Commissioner outlines busy 2026 work plan, major maintenance projects
Summary
Walworth County Highway Commissioner Richard Huff told the Traffic Safety Commission the county is conducting nearly 100 miles of crack filling, multiple chip seal projects, a bridge modification and providing emergency response support in several communities this year.
Richard Huff, the county highway commissioner, briefed commissioners on heavy 2026 workload for highway operations, including multiple projects on the north and south ends of County Highway H, a bridge modification on County Highway P and nearly 100 miles of crack filling and other resurfacing activity.
Huff said crews have been engaged in chip sealing and remediation projects, and the county provided emergency-response support in the White River Park and Como areas that will continue for at least another week. He described operations as one of the busiest years in his eight years with the department and said he has been keeping crews fully scheduled.
No formal actions or supplemental funding requests were approved at the meeting; commissioners received the operational update and asked staff to keep the commission informed of any sustained traffic impacts from project work.
