Route description
The western terminus of WIS 105 is at the state line with Minnesota at the Oliver Bridge. The bridge crosses the Saint Louis River to the Gary-New Duluth neighborhood in the city of Duluth. The highway follows Union Street through Oliver and 61st street into Superior. After crossing the river, WIS 105 becomes Minnesota State Highway 39 (MN 39, East McCuen Street).[1] From its western terminus, WIS 105 runs east-west through Oliver, intersecting with County Trunk Highway W (CTH-W) in western Oliver. After exiting Oliver, it curves northeast through the town of Superior before entering the city of Superior. It then runs east-west through southern Superior before ending at an intersection with WIS 135. The highway is undivided for its entire length.[2]
