Electric avenue: Interstate 94 marked as 'EV ready' corridor

Signs installed last month mark Interstate 94 as an alternative-fuel corridor with electric vehicle charging stations every 50 miles. One of several such corridors in the state, it is the first to be marked. Wisconsin Department of Transportation

New signs along Interstate 94 are telling motorists in southeastern Wisconsin that electric chargers are nearby as part of Gov. Tony Evers’ efforts to promote alternative fuels.

Signs erected in September along the interstate between Madison and the Illinois border indicate the 110-mile corridor is “EV ready,” meaning there’s a DC fast-charging station every 50 miles.
