The traffic can literally be bumper-to-bumper and test the patience of even the most experienced commuter. 
The daily barrage of cars, trucks and other vehicles has become too much for the two-lane, 3-mile stretch of Highway M in the town of Westport. 
A $20 million project between Oncken Road near Governor Nelson State Park and Highway 113 began Tuesday and will expand the county roadway to four lanes to Willow Road, resurface the highway from Willow Road to Highway 113, add turn lanes at key intersections and build a second bridge over a feeder creek to Lake Mendota.
