"Bypasses" around Nothing Special

[Max Rockatansky]

Got get past a little dirt to get to the good stuff.  Not sure what that good stuff is since I'm not seeing an industrial park along the bypass route.

It's a bypass (libramiento) around something, but pan left and check out the great pavement.

If you look at the previous GSV, then you can see that the pavement is there (deteriorating), but just covered in blowing dirt.  Here's from the other direction.

Yeah, me either.  If I were the highway department, I wouldn't bother repaving it either.

Burlington WI population just 10,000 has a bypass. Never understood why it was built. Not much traffic would take Hwy 36 through it and continue on to the Lake Geneva area. Usually Milwaukee traffic going to Lake Geneva takes I-43.

It's useful if you're going from Racine to Lake Geneva, or Kenosha or Racine to Elkhorn (or even cities beyond that). I've taken it a couple times going from Madison to the Kenosha area when I didn't feel like taking I-94.
