WisDOT is Proposing Highway System Changes
As part of the US 10 highway expansion project, WisDOT is proposing jurisdictional transfers of some of our state
highways. Portions of existing US 10 and other state highways are expected to revert to local units of government.
Removal of US 10 from downtown Stevens Point west of I-39 and Wis. 66 from Stanley Street are part of the planned
changes to the state highway system.

the proposed changes. 162 kB File Requires Acrobat or Free Acrobat Reader |
