History

Starting in 1919, WIS 93 was formed to follow along part of its present-day route from WIS 25 (now WIS 35/WIS 54) in Centerville to WIS 53 (now WIS 95 and County Trunk Highway A [CTH-A]) west of Arcadia.[2][3] In 1923, part of WIS 53 was moved south and extended northeastward, running from Arcadia to Neville instead of to Whitehall. As a result, WIS 93 extended northward to Eau Claire, superseding portions of WIS 53 from Arcadia to Independence and WIS 88 from Independence to Elk Creek.[4][5] In 1934, WIS 93 extended southward towards Trempealeau and then eastward along superseded WIS 167 towards US 53/WIS 35 near Holmen.[6][7]

In 1940, WIS 93 moved off from what is now McGilvray "Seven Bridges" Road (later signed as CTH-M/CTH-XA).[8] As a result, it has to travel northward roughly along present-day and former CTH-M towards WIS 35 (now WIS 93)/WIS 54 west of Galesville.[9][10] In 1953, a connection to US 53 near Holman was restored.[11][12]

In the mid-1980s, WIS 93 moved eastward to bypass Arcadia, swapping with CTH-A in the process.[13][14] In 1990, a portion of WIS 93 switched places with a portion of WIS 35. As a result, WIS 93 served Galesville while WIS 35 served Trempealeau.[15][16]
