==Transportation== [[File:Taylor County Wisconsin Welcome Sign WIS13.jpg|thumb|right|Welcome sign on [[Wisconsin Highway 13|STH 13]]]] The state of Wisconsin has jurisdiction over {{convert|120|mi|km}} of state highways in Taylor County, including STH-13, STH-64, STH-73, STH-97, and STH-102. STH-13 runs north–south through the eastern half of the county and STH-73 is the major north–south highway in the western half of the county. STH-64 is the major highway running east–west through Taylor county. Through a contractual agreement with the state, the Taylor County Highway Department is responsible for maintenance of state highways and right-of-ways. A network of {{convert|250|mi|km}} of county highways serves Taylor County's rural areas. Major east–west highways include CTH-A, CTH-D, CTH-M, and CTH-O. Major north–south routes include CTH-C, CTH-E, and CTH-H. Towns in Taylor County are responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of their individual town roads. [[Image:Rustic Road Number 1.jpg|thumb|right|Rustic Road 1, north of Rib Lake]] The county has one designated [[Rustic Road (Wisconsin)|Rustic Road]], Rustic Road 1 located in the [[Rib Lake (town), Wisconsin|Town of Rib Lake]]. Dedicated in 1975, this {{convert|5|mi|km|adj=mid|-long}} gravel road between STH-102 and CTH-D near Rib Lake was the first Rustic Road in Wisconsin. It winds over wooded hills and valleys created by glaciers nearly 12,000 years ago. A historical marker alongside the road (at Hwy 102 and RR1) commemorates the designation.<ref>{{cite web|title=Rustic Road 1|url=http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/travel/scenic/rusticroad1.htm|website=Rustic Roads|publisher=Wisconsin Department of Transportation|access-date=October 2, 2014|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20141006071003/http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/travel/scenic/rusticroad1.htm|archive-date=October 6, 2014}}</ref> ===Major highways=== * [[Image:WIS 13.svg|20px]] [[Highway 13 (Wisconsin)]] * [[Image:WIS 64.svg|20px]] [[Highway 64 (Wisconsin)]] * [[Image:WIS 73.svg|20px]] [[Highway 73 (Wisconsin)]] * [[Image:WIS 97.svg|20px]] [[Highway 97 (Wisconsin)]] * [[Image:WIS 102.svg|20px]] [[Highway 102 (Wisconsin)]] ===Railroads=== *[[Canadian National]] *[[Watco]] ===Buses=== ===Airports=== * KMDZ - Taylor County The primary airport in the county is the [[Taylor County Airport (Wisconsin)|Taylor County Airport]] (KMDZ).
