In a partnership with 11 federally recognized tribes, the Federal Highway Administration, and the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the state Department of Transportation is installing highway signs in English and native languages. The dual-language signs are already in place in some Wisconsin communities.

The first was installed in November last year with the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Chippewa. Since then, signs have been put in place in the Oneida Nation, in Menominee communities, and in the Sokaogon Chippewa Community. The highway signs identify communities in tribal areas and reservation boundaries.
