The organized system of Wisconsin State Trunk Highways (typically abbreviated as STH or WIS), the state highway system for the U.S. state of Wisconsin, was created in 1917 With the original numbers starting at 11 and up to 199. These routes were altered significantly in 1923 when U.S. routes were commissioned. Further alteration occurred when the Interstate Highway System was commissioned in the state. Chris Bessert.
