Good job on the video, that's one part of Milwaukee I did not explore when I was there so nice to see it on film. Local fare on the soundtrack is always a plus.
Thanks Jim! I was thinking about you when I decided to go with a local artist on the track. But I also wanted in this series to explore the places not explored previously, so this was a good fit.
I was debating including that Mike, but I couldn't stand using the I-41 designation. Although I don't agree with the old plan to extend this road to the north, I think connecting it to WIS 145 had some merit, although it can't be done now. But thanks for watching!
TheSolarcatcher I live in Milwaukee. I think it woulda made sense if WI-145 extended to downtown and had the Stadium Freeway join with it. That way, people would have a faster way getting across town.
The Stadium Freeway will soon be getting a new number - as part of the pending US 41 interstate 'promotion', as part of the numbering changes for it, AASHTO approved (finally) a WisDOT proposal to reroute US 41 to follow the logical all-freeway routing through Milwaukee County (US 45/I-894), taking US 41 off of the city streets. It is my assumption that existing US 41 on the streets, as well as the Stadium Freeway and Miller Park Way to National Ave ('secret' WI 341), will become 'WI 175'.
Awesome video. Its about time someone put up a video of this route.

Thanks! I do love how you can see Miller Park from downtown. I can only think of the Humpdome in your neck of the woods of having such an effect.

I thought it was only in Aus that freeways came to a sudden stop! Nice video Kris

Appreciate the support! Thanks!
This road is cool when you ride this in person
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks!
What car do you drive?
Thanks Geoff!
by the way, on an unrelated note, his TV daughter now sells houses for Keller Williams real estate in Santa Clarita, California.

When I first saw it, it looked liked a giant pillow. Guess we know it can burst!
I call it the "Bob Uecker Freeway" after its famous Brewers announcer.
+ir10031981 Perhaps when he passes on that would be a good idea.
But they are reconstructed in 2015
This millerpark freeway ends!
I would worry about any foul balls or homers from there!
