Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers, together with the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT), yesterday announced Harbor Assistance Program grants totaling over $7.5 million for harbor maintenance and construction projects in Green Bay, Manitowoc, Marinette, Milwaukee, and Sturgeon Bay.
The bipartisan 2025-27 Biennial Budget, signed by Evers last summer, directed $30 million to support the state’s successful Harbor Assistance Program, as well as $20 million specifically to support the completion of the port development project at the Port of Green Bay.
