The subject of the report is the last phases of the Wisconsin Statewide Transportation Study (Highways). The introductory sections show how the study fits into the highway planning process, the planning objectives, principles, and standards, and a description of the travel model. The major part of the report is the development and testing of alternative highway plans, development of the final plan, and implementation. The Final Highway Plan was developed and traffic service tests and land service tests were applied. Several maps show the compatibility of the final plan with other transportation plans and with plans developed by other State agencies. In implementing the final plan, a Freeway-Expressway Plan was developed. Design standards, access type and spacing criteria for the highways in the final plan are given. Corridor studies were initiated at critical locations. Priority planning, jurisdictional planning, financial planning, and advance reservation of land for future highway use have all been initiated. A model act for the protection of future highway rights-of-way is included. (BPR abstract)
