Highway 310 (Wisconsin)
Route description
WIS 310 starts at exit 154 on I-43/US 10. WIS 310 is a four-lane highway for the first 0.3 miles (0.5 km) of its route. It then continues as a two-lane, rural highway. The road then intersects CTH-R, which leads north to Rockwood. WIS 310 then goes eastbound and crosses over the Little Manitowoc River. At 2.6 miles (4.2 km) WIS 310 intersects CTH-Q in a relatively remote area. Continuing eastbound the route continues through an area of marshland, and passes a large cemetery. CTH-B is the next major road that WIS 310 intersects. After this intersection the highway progresses through more rural farmland with patches of forest in between. After passing CTH-DD the road continues into a residential area in Two Rivers. WIS 310 becomes a southbound residential street while in Two Rivers known as Hawthorne Avenue, and then turns back eastbound where it meets its terminus at WIS 42.
History
In 1984, US 10 was rerouted to run smoothly with I-43; the former US 10 was designated WIS 310. The remaining seven miles (11 km) of the road was part of CTH-D until the county government transferred the road to state control, and hence it became part of WIS 310. This route has not changed since.
Major intersections
The entire highway is in Manitowoc County.
