Forward Dane
Forward Dane is our plan for a phased reopening of Dane County during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Forward Dane provides Dane County-specific data and guidance for how and when we can begin to allow people to interact in a safe way and incrementally reopen businesses using a phased approach.
It complements the Wisconsin Department of Health Services’ Badger Bounce Back Plan and the guidance provided by the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation so everyone can understand their role in opening up our county.
We are in Phase 1, as of 8:00am on May 26, 2020.
Our phased reopening is driven by Dane County metrics.
Review our metrics page for the measures we are using to guide our decision making.
There are requirements for all sectors.
Our requirements and resources page outlines the requirements for all businesses and sectors. It also includes links to resources for implementing requirements and other guidance.
