Looking north on Highway 146 in Cambria

Starting at WIS 16 northwest of Fall River, WIS 146 begins its journey northward. It then meanders northward to Cambria. In Cambria, WIS 146 turns north via Williams Street, west via Florence Street, and then north again via Madison Street. After leaving Cambria, it then meets WIS 33. At this point, the route ends there and continues as County Trunk Highways M (CTH-M).[2]
