18. In driveway at 23526 125th St.
Notes on entering highways:
When the roadway has two or more highway designations, choose the highway with the
highest classification. Order of hierarchy:
Interstate highway
U.S. highway
State trunk highway
U.S. business route
State trunk business route
County trunk highway
Local streets or roads
For example, USH 41 and IH 94 run concurrently in Kenosha County. In this case, 94
should be chosen as the On Hwy # because an interstate highway is higher in the order
of hierarchy than a US highway.
When the roadway has two or more designations of the same classification, choose the
lowest numbered highway. For example, interstate highways 39, 90 and 94 run
concurrently for a while in Dane County. In this case, 39 should be chosen as the On
Hwy # since they are all highways with the same classification and 39 is the lowestnumbered one.
If the highway you're looking for isn't on the list, check that you have the correct county
and municipality selected in fields 2 and 3. In many counties, there is a township and
city or village with the same name. If you have double-checked the county and
municipality and have followed the rules above for selecting highways with more than
one designation, and it’s not a county highway within a city or village (in which case it
should be entered in the On Street Name field), enter it in the On Street Name field by
keying Alt + O or selecting the "Other" button on the tool bar and then keying STH, IH,
USH, or CTH plus the number or letter. You will get a warning about this but you can
still validate the form.
Please make every effort to select the highway from the list rather than keying it
in the On Street Name field. Other data fields such as highway class are added to
the data behind the scenes based on the value in this field.
