HOW TO FIND US
ROAD CONSTRUCTION:
Washington Avenue in Cedarburg, from south of downtown to around Pioneer Road, will be under construction through Summer 2026.
This construction does not affect the downtown area. All businesses in our south district remain open during the construction.
Arriving from I-43 or somewhere south of Cedarburg?
Consider taking McKinley Blvd. from Pioneer Road or
Lakefield Road off of Port Washington Road, which will take you straight into downtown Cedarburg.
Though the project is slated to be completed in November, we're hoping for an earlier finish!
