Part of Merrill Avenue to close to traffic Thursday

The Fond du Lac Department of Public Works is announcing that work done Thursday, June 19, 2025, will close down a portion of Merrill Avenue in the city.

At 7 a.m. the road will be closed between Park Avenue and Champion Avenue so a utility contractor can install a new water main at the intersection of Algoma Street and Merrill Avenue.

The closure is said to last for only one day.

While no official detour has been announced, it’s suggested that travelers use Division Street, one block to the south of the closed road, to get past the construction.
