What it does
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
This bill designates a route in Milwaukee County upon which high-wide loads may be operated with a permit from the City of Milwaukee. A “high-wide” load is a motor vehicle that exceeds general state limitations on motor vehicle size, that is transporting property, and that is not more than 28 feet wide or 23 feet tall.
Under this bill, in general, no person may install any structure along the route within the area necessary for the passage of a high-wide load without the authorization of the City of Milwaukee. Also, no person may take any action that would make any portion of the route permanently unavailable for use by a high-wide load.
