Wisconsin State Highway 183

Wisconsin State Highway 183

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 United States Numbered Highways were commissioned. Further alteration occurred when the Interstate Highway System was commissioned in the state.

Wisconsin highway markers use the FHWA Highway Gothic font in Series D for all one- and two-digit numbers and Series C for three-digit markers. All highways except Interstates use 24-by-24-inch (610 mm × 610 mm) or 36-by-36-inch (910 mm × 910 mm) markers; Interstate markers for three-digit highways are wider shields.

Famous quotes containing the words state and/or highway:

    It’s important to remember that feminism is no longer a group of organizations or leaders. It’s the expectations that parents have for their daughters, and their sons, too. It’s the way we talk about and treat one another. It’s who makes the money and who makes the compromises and who makes the dinner. It’s a state of mind. It’s the way we live now.
    Anna Quindlen (20th century)

    The most excellent and divine counsel, the best and most profitable advertisement of all others, but the least practised, is to study and learn how to know ourselves. This is the foundation of wisdom and the highway to whatever is good.... God, Nature, the wise, the world, preach man, exhort him both by word and deed to the study of himself.
    Pierre Charron (1541–1603)
