U.S. Route 141

As a bi-state highway, US 141 is a state trunk highway in Wisconsin and a state trunkline highway in Michigan. In Wisconsin, the segment through the Green Bay area is not on the National Highway System (NHS),{{cite map |author = Federal Highway Administration |author-link = Federal Highway Administration |location = Washington, DC |title = National Highway System: Green Bay, Wisconsin |date = October 1, 2012 |publisher = Federal Highway Administration |url = http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/national_highway_system/nhs_maps/wisconsin/greenbay_wi.pdf |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20140113011649/http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/national_highway_system/nhs_maps/wisconsin/greenbay_wi.pdf |url-status = dead |archive-date = January 13, 2014 |format = PDF |scale = Scale not given |access-date = July 18, 2013 }} except for about four blocks along Broadway Avenue that is part of an intermodal connector with the Port of Green Bay.{{cite web |url = https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/national_highway_system/intermodal_connectors/wisconsin.cfm |title = Official NHS Intermodal Connector Listing: Wisconsin |last1 = Natzke |first1 = Stefan |last2 = Neathery |first2 = Mike |last3 = Adderly |first3 = Kevin |name-list-style = amp |date = June 18, 2012 |work = National Highway System |publisher = Federal Highway Administration |access-date = March 20, 2013 }} The NHS is a network of roads important to the country's economy, defense, and mobility.{{cite web |last1 = Natzke |first1 = Stefan |last2 = Neathery |first2 = Mike |last3 = Adderly |first3 = Kevin |name-list-style = amp |url = https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/national_highway_system/ |title = What is the National Highway System? |work = National Highway Administration |publisher = Federal Highway Administration |date = September 26, 2012 |access-date = January 1, 2013 }} From the Green Bay suburb of Howard northward, including the entire length through Michigan, US 141 is a part of the NHS.{{cite map |author = Michigan Department of Transportation |location = Lansing |title = National Highway System, Michigan |date = April 23, 2006 |publisher = Michigan Department of Transportation |url = http://www.michigan.gov/documents/MDOT_NHS_Statewide_150626_7.pdf |format = PDF |scale = Scale not given |access-date = October 7, 2008 |url-status = dead |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20121004040152/http://www.michigan.gov/documents/MDOT_NHS_Statewide_150626_7.pdf |archive-date = October 4, 2012 }}{{cite map |author = Federal Highway Administration |location = Washington, DC |title = National Highway System: Wisconsin |date = October 1, 2012 |publisher = Federal Highway Administration |url = https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/national_highway_system/nhs_maps/wisconsin/wi_Wisconsin.pdf |format = PDF |scale = Scale not given |access-date = July 18, 2013 }} From the I-43 interchange in Howard north to the split at Abrams, US 141 is also a part of the Lake Michigan Circle Tour (LMCT), a tourist route that surrounds Lake Michigan.

US 141 starts at an interchange with I-43 southeast of Green Bay in the suburb of Bellevue. From the terminus at exit 178, US 141 runs north to Main Street, and then northwesterly along Main Street through town. Wisconsin Highway 29 (WIS 29) merges with US 141 at an intersection on the northwest side of Bellevue, and the two highways run concurrently through residential subdivisions. Main Street passes over I-43 and continues to the north and into the city of Green Bay. US 141/WIS 29 crosses Baird Creek and runs along the banks of the East River. At the intersection with Monroe Avenue, WIS 29 turns south, joining WIS 54/WIS 57 while US 141 continues westward on Main Street to cross the Fox River on the Ray Nitschke Memorial Bridge. On the west side of the river, the highway follows Dousman Street for a block before turning north along Broadway Avenue for four blocks. From there, the highway follows Mather Street west to Velp Avenue. US 141 follows that street northwesterly and parallel to I-43 on the north side of Green Bay. This area is mostly residential with some businesses immediately on either side. In the suburb of Howard, US 141 merges onto the I-41/US 41 freeway via the interchange at exit 170. I-41/US 41/US 141 has an interchange for I-43 just south of the Duck Creek crossing, where I-41 terminates.{{google maps |url= https://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=US-141+N%2FCounty+Rd+MM%2FElm+View+Rd&daddr=44.4546829,-87.9449341+to:44.4763211,-87.9685066+to:M-28+E%2FUS-141+N&hl=en&sll=45.770157,-87.996025&sspn=0.240439,0.232773&geocode=FbYJpgIdanzC-g%3BFRpTpgIdGhHC-in3qDDS-eMCiDGddmVYAnVC_w%3BFaGnpgIdBrXB-inXCAwQXuQCiDFrgIwbUrzqpQ%3BFQjUxgIdIgG6-g&vpsrc=0&mra=mrv&via=1,2&t=h&z=8 |title= Overview Map of US 141 |access-date= January 4, 2012}}{{cite WisDOT map |year= 2019 |inset= Green Bay and Vicinity }}

From Howard northward, the freeway runs through suburban Brown County to Suamico, parallel to a line of the Escanaba and Lake Superior Railroad (ELS), through a mixture of farm fields and residential subdivisions. There are frontage roads on both sides of the freeway to provide access to the properties immediately adjacent to US 41/US 141. There are a number of interchanges with county-maintained roads between Suamico and Abrams in Oconto County. At Abrams, US 141 splits from US 41 and heads northward as an expressway while the latter freeway turns northeasterly. The landscape north of the split transitions to forest, and the freeway crosses the Oconto River in Stiles south of the interchange with WIS 22. The expressway bypasses Lena to the east. It crosses a railroad track at the surface and continues north through mixed farm fields and forest to the county line. North of the line, US 141 continues to the Marinette County communities of Coleman and Pound as an expressway. There is another grade railroad crossing at Pound. Through Coleman and Pound there is also a Business US 141. Past the latter town, US 141 transitions from expressway to a two-lane undivided highway.{{cite WisDOT map |year= 2019 |sections= I4–I6, H3 }}

South of Crivitz, US 141 crosses the Peshtigo River. The highway crosses a branch line of the ELS on the east side of Crivitz and continues north through woodland to the community of Middle Inlet. North of town, the roadway turns northeasterly to the community of Wausaukee where it intersects WIS 180. From there, the highway passes through the communities of Amberg and Beecher before coming into Pembine, where US 8 merges in from the west. The two highways run concurrently north and northeasterly to an intersection southeast of Niagara. US 8 separates to the east, and US 141 turns northwesterly along River Street into Niagara. The highway then turns north along Roosevelt Road and over the Menominee River to exit the state of Wisconsin.

Once in Michigan, {{convert|1|mi|km|spell=in}} west of Quinnesec, US 141 meets and joins US 2. The two highways run concurrently westward into Iron Mountain along Stephenson Avenue, passing through a retail business corridor and into downtown. M-95 joins the two highways, and all three pass Lake Antoine. M-95 turns off north of town and US 2/US 141 crosses the Menominee River back into Wisconsin.{{cite MDOT map |year=2010 |sections= C4–D4, D5 }}

US 2/US 141 makes a {{convert|14.5|mi|km|adj=on}} run through Florence County, passing the Spread Eagle Chain of Lakes. The highway serves the communities of Spread Eagle and Florence. The only junction with another state trunk highway in Wisconsin on the northern section is with the concurrent highways WIS 70/WIS 101 in Florence. The highway crosses back into Michigan on a bridge over the Brule River south of Crystal Falls.

Across the state line, the trunkline runs through forest near several smaller bodies of water such as Stager, Kennedy, and Railroad lakes. The highway enters Crystal Falls on 5th Street. US 2/US 141 runs along the top of the hill in town and intersects the western terminus of M-69 next to the Iron County Courthouse. US 141 continues westward on Crystal Avenue and separates from the US 2 concurrency on the western edge of town. Running north and northwesterly, US 141 passes to the east of the Ottawa National Forest through rural Iron County. The highway crosses the Paint River and continues through forest to the community of Amasa. The trunkline crosses the Hemlock River on the west side of town. From there, US 141 runs northward into the southwest corner of Baraga County and also enters the Eastern Time Zone. West of Worm Lake, US 141 meets M-28 in the community of Covington. The two highways merge and run easterly for about {{convert|4|mi|km|spell=in}} before US 141 terminates at US 41; M-28 continues eastward, merging with US 41.

In 1918, when Wisconsin initially numbered its highway system, the route of what later became US 141 followed two separate state highways: WIS 17 from downtown Milwaukee to Manitowoc and WIS 16 from Manitowoc north to Green Bay. Segments that later became US 141 in Wisconsin were numbered WIS 15 between Green Bay and Abrams, and WIS 38 between Abrams and Wausaukee. North of Wausaukee, the future US Highway was an unnumbered secondary highway.{{cite WisDOT map |sections= P8–Q11, Q11–P15 |year= 1918 |link= yes |access-date= November 14, 2010 |v-link = yes }} In 1919, Michigan signed its highway system,{{cite news |title = Michigan May Do Well Following Wisconsin's Road Marking System |work = The Grand Rapids Press |date = September 20, 1919 |page = 10 |oclc = 9975013 }} but the state did not have a highway running south from Quinnesec to the state line. The highway from Quinnesec into Iron Mountain was part of M-12. The segment through Florence County, Wisconsin, was WIS 69, and from the Crystal Falls area north to Covington, the M-69 moniker was used.{{cite MDOT map |date= 1919-07-01U }} In 1919, the WIS 38 designation was extended northward to Niagara and the state line.{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1919 |sections= Q11–P15 }}{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1920 |sections= 4, 6 |pages= 20–1, 26–7 }} The highway was straightened to eliminate a series of sharp curves between Crivitz and Beaver in 1921.

As originally proposed in 1925, several US Highways in Wisconsin and Michigan's Upper Peninsula were to be designated. However, the routings for two highways were different in Michigan in 1925 than on the final 1926 map. In the original plan, US 102 was supposed to replace M-15 from US 2 at Rapid River, continue via Marquette to Humboldt, and the highway between Crystal Falls and Covington was not included in the system.{{cite book |type= Report |author = Joint Board on Interstate Highways |year = 1925 |chapter = Appendix VI: Descriptions of the Interstate Routes Selected, with Numbers Assigned |chapter-url = https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Report_of_Joint_Board_on_Interstate_Highways_October_30,_1925#52 |title = Report of Joint Board on Interstate Highways, October 30, 1925, Approved by the Secretary of Agriculture, November 18, 1925 |location= Washington, DC |publisher= United States Department of Agriculture |pages = 52, 57 |id= {{OCLC|733875457|55123355|71026428}} |via = Wikisource |access-date = November 14, 2017 }} However, when the final plan was approved and implemented on November 11, 1926, US 41 took the eastern routing through Rapid River and Marquette, and US 102 was routed between Crystal Falls and Covington. In both plans, US 141 was only routed between Milwaukee and Green Bay, replacing WIS 17 and WIS 16.{{cite map |author1 = Bureau of Public Roads |author-link = Bureau of Public Roads |author2 = American Association of State Highway Officials |author2-link = American Association of State Highway Officials |date = November 11, 1926 |title = United States System of Highways Adopted for Uniform Marking by the American Association of State Highway Officials |url = https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:United_States_System_of_Highways_Adopted_for_Uniform_Marking_by_the_American_Association_of_State_Highway_Officials.jpg |scale = 1:7,000,000 |location = Washington, DC |publisher = United States Geological Survey |oclc = 32889555 |access-date = November 7, 2013 |via = Wikimedia Commons |name-list-style = amp }} At the time the two US Highways were created, WIS 57 was left untouched between Abrams and Niagara.{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1927}} The next year, the M-57 designation was assigned to connect WIS 57 to Quinnesec, and US 8 was extended to follow US 141 to US 2 near Iron Mountain.{{cite MDOT map |date= 1927-12-01 }}

On November 12, 1928, the extension of US 141 northward from Green Bay along WIS 57 to the Michigan state line had been approved;{{AASHTO minutes |year = 1928A |access-date = April 13, 2022 }} the signage was readied for installation the previous month.{{cite news |title = Extend Highway From Green Bay: Signs for Change Have Already Arrived for Use |url = https://newspaperarchive.com/michael-g-other-articles-clipping-oct-22-1928-785107 |date = October 22, 1928 |work = The Manitowoc Times |page = 6 |oclc = 14404502 |access-date = August 11, 2018 |via = NewspaperArchive.com }} The US 102 designation was decommissioned when US 141 was also extended to replace M-57 from the state line, along US 2 to Crystal Falls and north to Covington.{{cite MDOT map |date= 1928-05-01 }}{{cite MDOT map |date= 1928-10-01 }} US 8's eastern end was rerouted along a separate bridge over the Menominee River to a new terminus at an intersection with US 2 in Norway in 1929.{{cite map |author = Rand McNally |author-link = Rand McNally |year = 1929 |title = Junior Auto Road Map of Wisconsin |location = Chicago |publisher = Rand McNally |scale = Scale not given }}{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1930}} US 141 was fully paved in Wisconsin in the early 1930s; the last segment to be completed was between Pound and Abrams.{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1932}}{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1934}}

Wisconsin proposed an addition to the Interstate Highway System in the 1950s to connect Green Bay, the state's third-largest city, to the system. Variations on this proposal included using either the US 41 or US 141 corridors, or a new corridor in between. This request was rejected in the 1950s, but it was approved in the 1960s. After approval, the state started the process to convert US 141 between Milwaukee and Abrams into a freeway. The first segments of freeway were opened in the Milwaukee area, starting in 1963 between Locust Street and Good Hope Road.{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1963 |inset= Milwaukee and Vicinity}}{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1964 |inset= Milwaukee and Vicinity }} The following year, an extension of the freeway opened southward from Locust to North Avenue.{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1965 |inset= Milwaukee and Vicinity }} By 1965, the bypass of Sheboygan was opened;{{cite web |first1 = Stefan |last1 = Natzke |first2 = Kevin |last2 = Adderly |name-list-style = amp |date = May 4, 2012 |title = Economic Development History of Interstate 43 Corridor |work = Economic Development |publisher = Federal Highway Administration |url = http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/economic_development/assistance/i43wi.cfm |archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20120912162021/http://www.fhwa.dot.gov/planning/economic_development/assistance/i43wi.cfm |url-status = dead |archive-date = September 12, 2012 |access-date = March 20, 2013 }} the Milwaukee area freeway was extended northward to Brown Deer Road the following year.{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1966 |inset= Milwaukee and Vicinity}}{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1967 |inset= Milwaukee and Vicinity}} Another freeway segment in the Milwaukee area opened in 1967, extending northward to Grafton in Ozaukee County.{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1967 |section= I9}}{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1968 |section= I9}} The last section of US 141 in the city of Milwaukee to open as a freeway was completed in 1968 when I-94 was finished through downtown; at the same time, US 141 was extended southward from North Avenue to meet I-94.{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1968 |inset= Milwaukee and Vicinity}}{{cite WisDOT map |year= 1969 |inset= Milwaukee and Vicinity}}

Business U.S. Highway 141 (Bus. US 141) is a business loop of US 141 that runs through the communities of Coleman and Pound. The loop follows County Trunk Highway B (CTH-B) northeasterly from the US 141 expressway into downtown Coleman and then turns northward near Coleman High School. Bus. US 141 continues northward into Pound, crossing the Peshtigo River in between the two communities. North of Pound, the loop crosses over US 141 on 21st Road and continues to an intersection with WIS 64. The business loop follows WIS 64 back to an interchange on US 141 northwest of Pound where the loop terminates.{{google maps |url= https://www.google.com/maps/dir/45.0586352,-88.0477357/45.1090223,-88.0186679/@45.0846742,-88.0537026,7224m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m9!4m8!1m5!3m4!1m2!1d-88.0477179!2d45.0586505!3s0x4d52d17fcfa2dda1:0x7c2232f690bf091c!1m0!3e0 |title= Overview Map of Bus.

In 2006, the US 141 expressway was extended northward near Beaver, and the former route of US 141, plus a connector roadway southwest of downtown Coleman was designated as a business loop. This route does not appear on the official Wisconsin Department of Transportation maps, so it is a locally designated business loop under local maintenance.
