Route description

Northern terminus

Starting at US 14/WIS 11 west of Delevan, WIS 89 traveled northward. Going northward, it then passes Richmond. Further northward, it then meets US 12 and WIS 59 south of Whitewater. At this point, WIS 89 runs concurrently north with US 12. In Fort Atkinson, WIS 106 intersects the concurrency. One block north of the intersection, the concurrency intersects WIS 26 Business. At this point, US 12 turns west along WIS 26 Business while WIS 89 continues north. Further north, it then crosses over WIS 26 without an interchange. At this point, the route largely parallels the WIS 26 freeway before meeting US 18 west of Jefferson. West of Jefferson, WIS 89 briefly travels west along US 18. At this point, WIS 89 travels largely in a north-northwest direction. In Lake Mills, it meets I-94 at a four-ramp parclo.
