About this Location

Facility Overview

WisDOT Park & Ride 58-01 is a state-maintained commuter parking facility located on Lot Lane just off Wisconsin Highway 29 (WIS 29) in the Town of Angelica, serving the adjacent village of Pulaski and surrounding western Brown and eastern Shawano counties. Built as an open-air surface lot with durable asphalt paving, this facility offers an organized layout of 14 designated auto parking spaces, including dedicated ADA-accessible stalls. Because it is completely open-air without an overhead canopy or parking deck structure, standard passenger vehicles experience unlimited vertical clearance headroom.

The facility comfortably accommodates standard passenger sedans, crossover SUVs, station wagons, minivans, and personal light-duty pickup trucks. However, motorists should be aware of state roadway regulatory restrictions: vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating exceeding 8,000 lbs, detached cargo or recreational trailers, commercial heavy vehicles, and vehicles parked for sale or advertisement are strictly prohibited on-site under Wisconsin Department of Transportation regulations.

Prime Location & Nearby Attractions

Strategically positioned at the junction of WIS 29, WIS 55, and WIS 160 (known historically as the Polish Veterans Memorial Highway), WisDOT Park & Ride 58-01 serves as a pivotal rideshare rendezvous point between rural Shawano County and the greater Green Bay metropolitan area. Located just two miles west of central Pulaski, it provides quick vehicle staging for local residents, workers, and regional travelers visiting surrounding attractions:

  • Downtown Pulaski & Memorial Park: Located approximately 2.5 miles east (a 4-to-5-minute drive), featuring community gathering spaces, local dining, the Pulaski Area Historical Society museum, and the famous Pulaski Polka Days festival grounds.
  • Mountain-Bay State Trail: Passing directly through Pulaski, this scenic 83-mile recreational rail-trail spans Brown, Shawano, and Marathon counties, offering premier biking, running, and snowmobiling opportunities accessible within minutes of the lot.
  • Green Bay & Titletown District: Situated just 18 miles southeast (approximately a 20-minute drive down multi-lane WIS 29), making this lot a convenient carpool assembly point for Packers game days at Lambeau Field, events at the Resch Center, and flights via Green Bay Austin Straubel International Airport (GRB).
  • Shawano Lake & Resort Area: Located approximately 20 miles to the northwest via WIS 29, offering year-round freshwater fishing, boating, and parkland.

Access, Navigation & Transit Connectivity

Ingress and egress are straightforward and engineered for low-stress vehicle movement. Motorists traveling east or west along WIS 29 should take Exit 242 toward WIS 55/WIS 160, proceed west onto WIS 55/County Road S, turn south onto Tile Drive, and turn onto Lot Lane. The single entrance/exit apron provides clear sightlines and easy turnarounds, making exiting quick even during morning and evening rush hours.

While this rural lot does not have direct fixed-route city transit or bus stops, it is an active node for the statewide Wisconsin RIDESHARE commuter program, enabling matched carpool and vanpool groups to meet efficiently. Furthermore, direct interchange access to WIS 29 provides an uninterrupted, multi-lane divided expressway connection toward both Green Bay to the east and Wausau to the west.

Visitor & Driver Tips

Because the lot has a boutique layout of 14 stalls, spaces are available on a first-come, first-served basis. Commuters heading to Green Bay on weekday mornings should plan to arrive before 7:30 AM to secure a stall during peak workweeks. Eventgoers heading to Green Bay Packers home games or large arena shows should rendezvous well ahead of kickoff or performance times.

Before leaving your vehicle unattended, ensure all windows are fully closed, doors are securely locked, and valuables are stored out of sight in the trunk or under privacy screens. During winter months, monitor local road alerts via 511 Wisconsin, and note that while the state contracts snow clearing, heavy Midwest blizzards may cause temporary delays in lot plowing.
