I-41 south at the County EB (Lakeview Drive) overpass. Decorative brick and other enhancements were used extensively along Interstate 41 in Green Bay.
06/14/18
I-41 expands to five southbound lanes as another auxiliary lane opens for I-43 south. Milwaukee is the control city for I-43 at Exit 170 B because Interstate 43 is a shorter route to Wisconsin's largest city than I-41 at this point.
06/14/18
A left exit was selected in the design of this exchange because of wetlands and the tight space between I-43 and Velp Avenue.
06/14/18
I-43 south begins to the left and the ramp does not have any advisory speed so traffic can safely exit at 70 mph. I-43 forms the north and east legs of the Green Bay Beltway. U.S. 141 departs I-41 to the right in a quarter mile towards Downtown Green Bay.
06/14/18

The succeeding exit is for Wis 29/32. Beginning at I-41, Wis 29 constitutes a 205 mile long non-stop expressway that connects Green Bay with I-94 near Menomonie. The freeway to freeway ramps as part of the I-41 project eliminated the final traffic signal along the Wis 29 expressway route.

06/14/18
Traffic to Exit 168 A and Wis 54/29 departs from I-41 south along a c/d roadway that collects traffic from Wis 29 east.
06/14/18
The Mason Street bridge along Wis 54 beyond the separation with Wis 32 at Ashland Avenue is part of a short freeway that is the busiest urban Fox River crossing in the city of Green Bay.
06/14/18
The two lanes of the c/d roadway from Wis 29 combine with the I-41 mainline to expand the southbound freeway to five lanes below Mason Street.
10/28/16
Exit 167 for Lombardi Avenue leads to Lambeau Field and the Resch Center.
06/14/18

06/14/18
Construction at forthcoming Exit 164 between Fall 2013 and 2016 expanded Interstate 41 south to four through lanes while adding a second lane for Wis 172.
06/14/18
Wis 172 forms the south leg of the Green Bay Beltway. It is also the busiest Fox River Crossing with over 85,000 vehicles per day (vpd).

Exit 163 A joins Interstate 41 with County G (Main Avenue) just south of Ashwaubenon Creek at the De Pere city line.
06/14/18
County G is the only east to west route that crosses De Pere. It combines with Wis 32 across the Fox River between West De Pere and Downtown.
06/14/18
Reconstruction of Exit 163 included adding roundabouts to Main Avenue, geometry improvements to the loop ramp from CTH-G west to I-41 south, and realigning Mid Valley Drive around the southwest quadrant of the interchange.
06/14/18
Ashland Avenue south, the former alignment of U.S. 41 Business, connects to I-41 south via a flyover within the parclo interchange (Exit 163 A) at CTH-G (Main Avenue). This is one of the very few bridges not rebuilt as part of the I-41 project. The span however was stained to match the colors of the other designs.
