How the RNC could impact your commute and travel plans

In downtown Milwaukee, the stages are being set up, parking restrictions are in place and some roads are already closed - all in preparation for the Republican National Convention.
The perimeter area is broken down into two sections: an inner perimeter and an outer perimeter. The inner perimeter will have restricted access only to those who are credentialed. The outer perimeter is open to pedestrians, but there will be vehicle checkpoints starting at 2 a.m. on Monday.
Several ramps along 794 will also close. On Sunday and Monday, the Hoan Bridge (I-794 between Van Buren Street and Carferry Drive) will close. Eastbound I-794 access to Van Buren Street/St. Paul Avenue remains open
McKinley Avenue/Fond du Lac Avenue, James Lovell Street and the Kilbourn Avenue Tunnels will all close the week of July 14.
Included in the restricted zone is a portion of the Milwaukee River. No commercial or recreational vessels will be allowed on the river between Cherry Street and Michigan Street.
