Wisconsin Highway 157

State Trunk Highway 157 (often called Highway 157, STH-157 or WIS 157) is a short state highway in the U.S. state of Wisconsin. It runs east on Main Street from WIS 35 (Second Avenue) in downtown Onalaska to the US Highway 53 (US 53) freeway. There it turns south, running concurrently with US 53 to the Interstate 90 (I-90) interchange. US 53 leaves WIS 157 to head west on I-90, but WIS 157 continues southeast to WIS 16 at the Valley View Mall.

According to the La Crosse Area Planning Committee's 2030 Metropolitan Area Transit Plan, the route may not remain WIS 157 forever. The plan suggests that following the completion of an extension project on US 53 (planned for 2012-2015), the Main Street portion will become a local street, with the rest becoming part of WIS 53.

Major intersections

The entire highway is in La Crosse County.
