"Biden's Milwaukee Visit: Revitalizing Infrastructure and Economic Strategies"

President Joe Biden is set to highlight a $36.6 million allocation for a "complete streets" project on Sixth Street in Milwaukee, part of a larger $3.3 billion grant program. The project aims to make the street safe and convenient for pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit users, with a focus on reducing vehicle lanes, adding trees, and potentially including fully separated bike lanes and transit lanes. The initiative is part of Milwaukee's broader "Complete Streets" plan, approved in 2023, and is seen as a key project within the city's downtown long-range comprehensive plan.
