State Trunk Highway 195 (often called Highway 195, STH-195 or WIS 195) is a state highway along the Kenosha–Racine county line in the US state of Wisconsin that runs east–west as a suburban route. WIS 195 is a multi-lane highway from Interstate 41/Interstate 94/US Highway 41 (I-41/I-94/US 41) to WIS 32 (Sheridan Road) that was widened in 2020 to accommodate new Foxconn industrial facilities along the route. Before coming under state control, the road was designated as County Trunk Highway KR (CTH-KR)[1] before November 18, 2024. The state anticipated transferring this route back to the county after the widening,[2] but did not move forward with this plan.
Route description
History
Previously County Trunk Highway KR (CTH-KR), it was renamed to WIS 195 in November 2024 at the same time that WIS 75 was redesignated to CTH-BD.[3] The state accepted jurisdiction over the roadway in a transfer agreement that placed the former WIS 75 under county control in both counties, now so designated as County Trunk Highway BD.[1][3]
Major intersections
The entire highway is on the Somers–Mount Pleasant line and the Kenosha–Racine county line.
