| Wis 93 begins at Exit 86 off of US 53. Despite the route of US 53 going to La Crosse, the city is listed as the control city for Wis 93 as the preferred route between La Crosse and Eau Claire due to it being a straighter and more direct road than US 53. It is also on the national highway system so the federal government recognizes it as the better route also. 09/04/16 |
