Your tax dollars would pay for the long-stalled expansion of the I-94 east-west corridor. Now, officials are getting public feedback on the proposed expansion.

The Wisconsin Legislature s budget committee will hold its first public hearing Friday on Gov. Tony Evers two-year state budget proposal.
The hearing is in Whitewater. But some of the testimony is expected to pertain to the Milwaukee area. That includes a plan by Evers to have the state borrow $40 million, to begin major work on a few miles of East-West I-94, on Milwaukee s near west side. That s a stretch of highway the state says can easily become congested.
But already, the noise in the Story Hill neighborhood, just north of the very busy freeway, is constant and loud.
