Kanavas Statement on the Zoo Interchange

 

 

(Madison)…State Senator Ted Kanavas (R-Brookfield) issued the following statement in response to the Department of Transportation’s emergency action to repair the Zoo Interchange. 

 

“I’ve been calling for the reconstruction of the Zoo Interchange since 2005 and now the bridges are falling down.  Over that time, the governor and legislative Democrats raided the Transportation Fund to the tune of $1.2 billion and chose to ignore what was happening to the busiest interchange in the state.  It’s irresponsible to sit back any longer and watch it disintegrate.  The facts speak for themselves; we need to rebuild the Zoo and do it now.”
