, was U.S. Route 112. However, the number approved for the route in 1926 was U.S. Route 110 (US 110). This route, which would be the forerunner of WIS 110, started out as a long south-to-north US Highway located entirely within Wisconsin. The southern terminus of the route was at US 41 (now the intersection of US 45 and WIS 76) in Oshkosh. The northern terminus was at US 10 (now the northern terminus of the WIS 96/WIS 110 concurrency) east of Fremont. US 110 was deleted in 1939 and subsequently replaced with WIS 110. Due to a series of extensions and truncations in the 70 years since, however, WIS 110 is no longer designated on most of the former routing of US 110. Today, what was once US 110 is now US 45 from Oshkosh to
