Silver Lake Beach ends summer season early for road construction

Posted

Silver Lake Beach will be closed for the remainder of the 2025 season beginning Monday, Aug. 11, as the City of Eagle River will start reconstruction on Silver Lake Road, a project aimed at improving road safety, infrastructure and long-term accessibility for residents and visitors.

The closure of the beach is necessary to ensure public safety during the reconstruction period, according to a press release from the city.

During the project, detour routes will be established via Dollar Lake Road off of Highway 70 East. This route will provide continued residential access as well as access to the T-Docks boat landing.

“We appreciate the community’s patience as we make these important infrastructure improvements,” said Robin Ginner, City Administrator of Eagle River. “The reconstruction will enhance safety, extend the life of the roadway and improve access for years to come.”

Residents and visitors are encouraged to plan ahead for detours and to stay alert to construction signage in the area. Updates on the project will be posted on the City of Eagle River website at www.eagleriverwi.gov.

The project is funded, in part, by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation LRIP/MSID grant program.

For additional information, contact Eagle River City Hall at 715-479-8682.
