History

Initially, WIS 95 traveled from WIS 15 (later US 41; now US 45) in Oshkosh to WIS 18 (later US 10; now WIS 96/WIS 110) in Fremont via parts of present-day US 45, CTH-S, CTH-M, CTH-II, and WIS 110. Prior to 1926, no significant changes to the routing happened. Then, in 1926, WIS 95 moved off from the Oshkosh–Fremont route to the Fountain City–Neillsville route. The Fountain City–Neillsville route was previously signed as WIS 53 before 1926. This was done in favor of establishing two U.S. Highways: US 53 (which caused WIS 53 to be decommissioned due to its route number being duplicated) and US 110 (which filled in the pre-1926 alignment of WIS 95). The routing still remains like this to this day.
