Route description
editStarting at WIS 31, WIS 174 ran northeastward via Springbrook Road. After crossing Kenosha's city limit, WIS 174 transitioned onto 22nd Avenue. The road paralleled WIS 32, which is about a 1⁄2 mile (0.80 km) to the east. Eventually, it ended at WIS 50 (75th Street).[4][1]
History
editIn 1947, WIS 174 was formed, superseding County Trunk Highway Y (CTH-Y) in Kenosha in the process.[5][2] During its existence, there were no significant changes to it.[4] In 1990, WIS 174 was decommissioned and replaced with CTH-ML.[3]
Major intersections
