Anatomy of Traffic Safety – Columbia County
Bureau of Transportation Safety
Revised: 11/3/16
Characteristics of the County and the Road Network
Columbia County is a metropolitan county within the Madison metropolitan area according to the U.S.
census. It is also adjacent to the Beaver Dam and Baraboo urban clusters. 27.76% of the county’s
population live in urban areas. Adams County is to its northwest, Marquette County is to its north,
Green Lake County is to its northeast, Dodge County is to its east, Dane County is to its south, and Sauk
County is to its west. The Wisconsin River forms a valley and travels along the county’s western
boundary in the northwest and the southwest, and in the west central part of the county the river is not
along the western boundary and it has a large bend. On the west side of the river is the town of
Caledonia, which is directly connected to the rest of the county by three bridges. The Fox River
meanders through northern areas of the county. There are 50 lakes in the county, including Lake
Wisconsin, a reservoir along the Wisconsin River. Others include Mud Lake, French Creek Lake, Swan
Lake, and Park Lake. Significant natural areas include the Dells of the Wisconsin River, the Baraboo
Range, French Creek Wildlife Area, Pine Island Wildlife Area, Peter Helland Wildlife Area, Gibraltar Rock,
Swan Lake Wildlife Area, and the MacKenzie Center.
Three Interstate highways enter the county from the south in a concurrency: I-39, I-90, and I-94. I-39 is
designated as a north-south highway, and I-90 and I-94 are designated as east-west highways. They
travel through rural areas of the county in the town of Arlington and the town of Dekorra, and then
cross the Wisconsin River. Near the Baraboo River in the town of Caledonia, I-39 diverges from I-90/94.
I-39 continues to the north, bypassing Portage, and I-90/94 heads to the northwest and exits the county.
To the west, I-90/94 carries traffic to and from Lake Delton, Wisconsin Dells (outside of Columbia
County), and Mauston. I-90 carries traffic to and from La Crosse, while I-94 carries traffic to and from
Eau Claire and Minneapolis/Saint Paul (MN). To the north, I-39 carries traffic to and from Endeavor,
Westfield, Stevens Point, and Wausau. South of Columbia County, I-39/90/94 carries traffic to and from
DeForest, Windsor, and Madison, after which I-39/90 continues toward Illinois and I-94 continues
toward Milwaukee.
United States Highway (USH) 151 is designated as a north-south freeway traveling from southwest to
northeast across the southeastern corner of the county bypassing Columbus. USH 151 carries traffic
between Sun Prairie and Madison to the south and Beaver Dam, Waupun, and Fond du Lac to the north.
USH 51, a north-south highway, travels through Arlington, Poynette, and Portage. North of Portage,
USH 51 is concurrent with I-39 as the highways exit the county. To the south, USH 51 travels to
DeForest, Windsor, and Madison.
State Trunk Highway (STH) 16 travels from northwest to southeast through Wisconsin Dells, Portage,
Wyocena, Rio, Fall River, and Columbus. STH 16 is concurrent with USH 51 from Portage south to a
point due west from Wyocena. STH 60 travels from east to west across the southern portion of the
county through Lodi, Arlington, and Columbus. STH 60 is concurrent with USH 51 from Arlington east
for about two miles. In Columbus, STH 16 and STH 60 become concurrent as the highways exit the
county to the east, with both highways heading toward Lowell, STH 16 continuing toward Watertown
and Oconomowoc, and STH 60 heading toward Hartford. To the west, STH 60 heads toward Sauk City,
Prairie du Sac, and Spring Green. STH 13 and STH 23 enter the county in a concurrency with STH 16
from the west, connecting Wisconsin Dells to I-90/94 outside of the county. In Wisconsin Dells, the
concurrency of the three highways splits, with STH 13 heading north toward Adams, Friendship, and
Wisconsin Rapids, STH 23 heading east toward Endeavor, Montello, and Fond du Lac, and STH 16
traveling southeast through the county as mentioned. To the west, STH 23 heads to Lake Delton,
Reedsburg, and Spring Green, while STH 16 travels alongside I-90/94 to Lyndon Station and Mauston.
STH 33 travels from east to west, traveling through Portage. To the west, STH 33 travels to Baraboo, and
to the east it travels to Fox Lake and Beaver Dam and connects with a highway that carries traffic to and
from Waupun. STH 146 begins at STH 33 in the town of Randolph north of Cambria and heads south
through Cambria to STH 16 just west of Fall River in the town of Fountain Prairie. STH 22 begins at the
east end of the USH 51/STH 60 concurrency in the town of Leeds east of Arlington and heads north
through Wyocena and Pardeeville before heading to Montello and Wautoma. STH 44 begins at STH 22
in Pardeeville and heads east then northeast. STH 44 is briefly concurrent with STH 33 for one mile in
and near the community of Marcellon, and then it heads northeast toward Kingston, Markesan, Ripon,
and Oshkosh.
STH 73 travels near and along the eastern border of the county, entering and exiting the county three
times, traveling through Randolph and Columbus. To the north, STH 73 travels toward Princeton and
Neshkoro, and to the south it heads toward Marshall, Deerfield, and Edgerton. STH 89 begins at STH 73
in Columbus and heads south toward Waterloo, Lake Mills, and Fort Atkinson.
STH 127 begins at STH 16 on the northwest side of Portage and it travels through rural areas in the town
of Lewiston and the town of Newport before ending at STH 16 just east of Wisconsin Dells. STH 78
begins at the junction of I-39 and I-90/94 in the town of Caledonia and heads southwest toward
Merrimac, Prairie du Sac, Sauk City, Black Earth, and Mount Horeb. STH 113 travels across the
southwestern corner of the county, traveling through Lodi. To the south, STH 113 carries traffic to and
from Dane, Waunakee, and Madison. To the north, the highway crosses Lake Wisconsin on the seasonal
Merrimac Ferry, and then travels to Merrimac and Baraboo. STH 188 begins at STH 113 at the Merrimac
Ferry in the town of West Point northwest of Lodi and heads southwest along the Wisconsin River into
Dane County.
Doylestown, just north of STH 16, is along County Trunk Highway (CTH) A, which connects to STH 16
between Rio and Fall River in the town of Otsego and STH 146 in the town of Courtland south of
Cambria. It is also along CTH Z, which connects with STH 146 in the town of Fountain Prairie.
Friesland is northeast of Cambria, northwest of Randolph, and just north of STH 33. It is along CTH EF,
which connects with STH 33 in the town of Randolph.
There are 1,738 miles of roadway in the county, including 278 (16.0%) miles of state roads, 357 (20.5%)
miles of county roads, and 1,103 (63.5%) miles of local roads.
In 2015, there were 23,340 autos, 4,166 cycles, 5,530 trailers, and 32,884 trucks registered in Columbia
County. VMT in 2015 was 1,009,837,835.

Incorporated municipalities account for 55.6% of the county’s population. The city of Portage is the
largest municipality in the county, followed by the city of Columbus, the town of Lodi, the town of
Pacific, and the village of Poynette. 91.2% of the population of Wisconsin Dells reside in Columbia
County, 6.6% reside in Sauk County, 2.2% reside in Adams County, and an unpopulated section of the
city is in Juneau County. 26.0% of the population of Randolph reside in Columbia County, and the rest
live in Dodge County. An unpopulated section of Columbus is in Dodge County. The following table1

Emergency Medical Services
Columbia County has two designated trauma centers. Divine Savior Healthcare in Portage is a level III
trauma center and Columbus Community Hospital in Columbus is a level IV trauma center. Not having
access to a level I or level II trauma facility within Columbia County gives residents a lesser chance of
receiving the best possible outcomes from crash incidents. University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clinics
in Madison, a level I trauma center, is 40 miles away from Portage, the county seat.
As of 2015, there are 224 emergency medical technicians (EMTs) in Columbia County operating out of 11
different EMS providers. A complete list of emergency service providers is listed below.
There are 3.93 EMTs per 1,000 persons in the county, compared to 3.85 EMTs per 1,000 persons
statewide.
