Milwaukee is a city in Wisconsin.

Hitching out

North/East towards Oshkosh

West Fon Du Lac Avenue (equivalent to Wisconsin highway 145) becomes controlled access W145 just west of 68th street. Standing here where it becomes a freeway will snag you a ride. Although much of the traffic here will be local, you should hold out and stay for a long distance ride to at least Fon Du Lac, because other entrances to the freeway have much lower flow of traffic.

South/West towards Rockyford

There is no good place to snag a ride to Rockyford. Gas stations may be a better shot than attempting to hitch from a ramp. Thewindandrain had trouble with this route and would suggest the south/westbound ramp from Wisconsin highway 24 (Forest Home Avenue) onto I894/I43. If you can get a ride to Elkhor] you will have a much better chance here. Do not get stuck at the East Troy travel center as most of the traffic there is headed for Whitewater or Chicago.
