Transportation is a large topic and includes federal and state transportation programs and financial aid. Highways include the proposed north-south corridors since 1967 under various names: La Crosse freeway (1968-1974), and Bicentennial highway (1975-1981). The most recent proposals (1997-1998) that led to a referendum are not included in this series. La Crosse Area Transportation Study files (1966-1974) are included here and consist of general files, Unified Work Program, and working documents. National Transportation Study files (1971-1974) include general documents for the La Crosse area, a 1971 and 1973 report, and the work program. Finally the TOPICS program (Traffic Operations Program to Increase Capacity and Safety in Wisconsin) (1967-1970) includes general and committee materials, intersection projects and a report. The intersections improved were Losey Blvd. & State Road, and West Ave. & Main St.
