Abstract:

Records, 1988-1997, documenting the controversial decision by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) to expand US Highway 12 to four lanes between Middleton and Lake Delton and the efforts by citizens and environmental groups to oppose such an enlargement. The records primarily document the efforts of the Safe Two-Lane Highway 12 NOW Coalition, but also include supporting documentation compiled by the coalition such as government documents detailing the growth of the project, and news clippings about the conflict.
