State Trunk Highway 181 (often called Highway 181, STH 181 or WIS 181) is a state highway in the U.S. state of Wisconsin. It runs north-south in southeast Wisconsin from West Allis to Cedarburg.
Highway 181 is called Wauwatosa Road from its northern terminus to the Milwaukee County line. South of County Line Road in Milwaukee, it becomes 76th Street, a major commercial and industrial corridor on Milwaukee's northwest side. At Center Street near Wauwatosa, the road becomes Wauwatosa Avenue. In downtown Wauwatosa, the highway is routed onto the local streets Harmonee Avenue and Harwood Avenue before resuming on Glenview Avenue south of downtown. In West Allis, Glenview Avenue becomes 84th Street, and the highway takes that designation to its southern terminus.
