A total of three business routes of U.S. Route 41 exist in Wisconsin. Additionally, there were four business routes that have since been disestablished. Business routes typically run through cities, after a highway was realigned. None are official state highways according to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) and are thus locally maintained, with the exception of the route through De Pere and Ashwaubenon.
