Stadium Freeway (Wisconsin)

Stadium Freeway (Wisconsin)

The Stadium Freeway is a 6-lane divided highway running North-South in Milwaukee. It is designated as US-41 along its northern stretch from Lisbon Avenue to I-94. The southern stretch from I-94 to National Avenue is Highway 341.

This freeway is the stump of what was to be a much larger freeway system in Milwaukee. The Stadium Freeway was intended to extend much further to the north and south than it currently does:

* the Stadium Freeway was to continue northward from its present terminus at Lisbon Avenue, where it was to intersect with the proposed Park West Freeway. It was to continue northward, intersecting with the proposed Bay Freeway and Fond du Lac Freeway and continuing northward to the city of Port Washington.

* the Stadium Freeway was to continue southward from its present terminus at National Avenue, and terminate at I-43/I-894. In fact, the interchange that was supposed to connect the Stadium Freeway to the Airport Freeway (I-43/I-894) was built entirely as the Greenfield Interchange. The interchange has been since renovated by having one of the ramps removed, while three other ramps connect to a park and ride.
