WisDOT schedules 2026 Holy Hill Road improvement through Richfield

A Wisconsin Department of Transportation program lists a 2026 improvement project for Holy Hill Road through the Village of Richfield, with an estimated total cost of $4 million to $4.999 million.

The project covers STH 167 from STH 175 to Interstate 41. WisDOT identifies the project as “V RICHFIELD, HOLY HILL ROAD” in the 2025-2028 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program. The listed project number is 2300-22-20.

What the project includes

The transportation program describes the work as a roadway resurfacing and reconstruction project. Its concept code is RE/RSRF15, identified in the record as a resurfacing-related project.

The program’s 2026 schedule entry is dated March 25, 2026. The cost is presented as an estimated range of $4,000,000 to $4,999,999, rather than as a final construction price.

For people who use the corridor, the project may bring construction activity, traffic changes and improved pavement conditions. Holy Hill Road is identified in the record as the route affected, and the project limits run from STH 175 to IH 41.

Schedule details remain limited

The WisDOT record is a planning and programming document. It lists the project for 2026, but it does not establish that construction was complete or underway as of Aug. 6, 2026.

The available record also does not provide an exact work start date, traffic-control plan or contractor. Without a current WisDOT traffic notice, the project should not be described as a road closure or as active construction.

The listing also should not be treated as a new approval made in August 2026. It is an entry in Wisconsin’s statewide transportation program, with the schedule date of March 25, 2026.

Richfield context

The Village of Richfield’s 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Plan independently confirms the municipal context for Richfield and includes 2026 roadway-improvement planning, including work identified for Elmwood Road. That village document does not independently confirm the current construction status of the Holy Hill Road project.

For now, the clearest available information for Richfield commuters, residents and nearby businesses is that WisDOT has programmed a multimillion-dollar improvement on STH 167 between STH 175 and Interstate 41. More specific information about construction timing, traffic controls and the contractor was not located in the approved record.
