That stretch of 38 from the roundabout to 6 mile has a crash rate 2.6 times the state average. The best option is to run 38 parallel to the rr tracks and build it to the same standards as 794. You could link it to 794 at Ryan Road since they follow the same set of rr tracks. The access to Milwaukee is awful and it is hurting the economy of the whole metro Racine area.

There is nothing wrong with visibility at 5 Mile and 38. People just need to get their heads out of their butts while driving and look for other vehicles. And when people from the city are driving on suburban and rural roads, they need to realize that cars are traveling much faster.
