The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT), in partnership with Greyhound, Indian Trails, Jefferson Lines, Lamers Bus and Wisconsin Transit Lines today announced updated services to state-supported bus routes that connect residents and visitors to rural and mid-sized communities as well as big cities in the region.

WisDOT supports multiple intercity bus routes that provide service to and from smaller communities and link travelers to regional hubs including Milwaukee, Chicago and Minneapolis.

Today’s announcement updates the service providers on many of these routes and includes the launch of a new bus route, Route 11, that travels from La Crosse to Green Bay.

WisDOT and its partners are proud to provide affordable and reliable connectivity for smaller communities to the broader Midwest and national intercity bus network.
