Toll Road Linking Madison and Kenosha Studied
Wisconsin Turnpike Commission review points to a 79.2 mile Madison to Kenosha toll link costing just over 1 million dollars per mile. The plan envisions a four lane highway with varied interchanges and a potential federal interstate alternative could negate the toll road. The report notes traffic around 4,200 vehicles daily near Madison and 3,100 elsewhere, with estimated revenues of 3.19 to 4.06 million dollars from 1960 to 1964.
