mso-fareast-font-family:\"Times New Roman\"\">But there is some good news for Packer fans in that the Leo Frigo Bridge (I-43) is opening seven days sooner than originally scheduled.

mso-fareast-font-family:\"Times New Roman\"\"> It will be open by 9:30 a.m. Sunday, January 5. This should help alleviate some of the traffic on WIS 172.

WisDOT strongly recommends motorists allow themselves additional time to reach their destinations
