It connects Interstate 94 (I-94) to WIS 59 (National Avenue), with a single set of off-ramps to Canal Street and American Family Field's parking lots.

The road is currently designated as Brewers Boulevard within Milwaukee city limits (including the American Family Field campus).

The highway continues north across a rail line to a folded diamond interchange with Parkway Drive, Frederick Miller Way and General Mitchell Boulevard.

The interchange at I-894 was built, but since the Stadium Freeway was never completed to connect to it, as of 2009[update] the ramps instead led to a park and ride lot at the corner of Loomis and Cold Spring Roads for commuter buses.

Because of lawsuits and protest, the southern extension was never built, though most of the right-of-way for the freeway was cleared down to Lincoln Avenue in West Milwaukee.
