Here are the latest updates on the Liberty Heights Park wading pool and pavilion. POOL - We’re working to open the wading pool as soon as possible. This year, the pool required new grates, which have been ordered and are currently pending delivery and installation. Once installed, we’ll be able to move forward with opening the pool. The pavilion restrooms are not yet available for use. In the meantime, a portable toilet is on site for park visitors. PAVILION -The pavilion will open once we receive official occupancy approval. We’re currently finalizing a few remaining items to ensure the structure meets all building, plumbing, and electrical codes. We're also completing the installation of an electronic locking system for the exterior restrooms. STAY INFORMED - We’ll share updates as they become available and will announce the official opening of both the wading pool and pavilion on our website, social media, and app. Thank you for your patience as we work to complete these improvements for the community.

UPDATE: The water main break on Oklahoma Avenue is just west of HWY 100 between 107th and 109th. In addition to previously reported lane closures, we’ve also placed a no-right-turn sign on HWY 100 heading south due to being too tight of turn. The turn lane heading north on HWY 100 to turn west onto Oklahoma is still open.

Due to the extreme heat, the concrete pavement in the 2400 block of southbound S. 92nd Street has buckled. The buckling has damaged the concrete, as well as storm sewer structures in the concrete. City of West Allis DPW crews have blocked this portion of S. 92nd Street for the safety of the public. Crews will begin to remove and replace the pavement and damaged portions of the structures after Digger's Hotline crews are able to mark the underground utilities. Weather permitting, we hope to pour the new pavement by the end of the week.

It's that time again - brush collection for woody material like sticks, trimmings, or branches from trees and shrubs. Public Works will provide every other week collection of small amounts of resident-generated brush, up to one (1) cubic yard, on the scheduled recycling pick-up day between June 2 and Oct. 3. No brush collection will be made during the holiday weeks of June 30 and Sept. 1, 2025. Follow these simple steps for collection: - Cut brush into lengths of five feet or less - Place the pile parallel between the sidewalk and curb - Put smaller pieces of loose brush in a box or can marked "brush" - Do not put brush in bags - Do not mix brush with yard waste (leaves, weeds, flowers, etc) If you have more than one cubic yard, call the Sanitation and Street Division Monday through Friday at 414-302-8800 to arrange pick-up. Fees will apply. Cash and electronic payments (credit/debit) are accepted at our DPW drop-off site at 6300 W. McGeoch Ave. Convenience fees apply.
