Wisconsin • United States of America
The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) manages approximately 11,800 miles of state and US-route highways in a state with a highly diverse freight economy spanning agriculture, manufacturing, paper/forest products, and dairy. Key freight corridors include I-43, I-90, I-94, I-41, and US-151. Wisconsin's numerous dairy farms, paper mills, and automotive suppliers generate substantial freight demand. WisDOT administers commercial vehicle permits, enforces spring road restrictions during the critical frost thaw period, and provides 511WI for real-time road condition information. The department also manages critical Mississippi River and Lake Michigan crossing infrastructure essential for interstate freight flows.
