Welcome
FEATURED LINK:
Welcome to the Michigan Highways website, dedicated to the past, present and future of the Michigan State Trunkline
system as well as other highways and routes throughout the Great Lakes State.
This website is intended to be a clearinghouse of information on Michigan's
highways, from easily-recognized facts to the little-known trivia. It is
also meant to change as the state trunkline system changes.
A major part of this website are the Highway
Listings which contain information
on every state trunkline in Michigan, as well as some other non-state-maintained
routes. The timeframe covered by this site is generally from 1918—the
year the first trunklines were assigned their route numbers—to present.
During late-2003 and into 2004, this website was completely reorganized and
redesigned and moved to its own URL. Online since June of 1997, all of the
content from the previous site location has been migrated here and many new
features and articles have been added. The navigation tools 
provided, including
the menus found at left, should help you navigate through the website. Also,
more content and new information is planned in the future. Please check back
regularly to see what has been added!
Be sure to check out any of the informative articles in the "In
Depth" section
by clicking on the section header (or the "more...") in the navigation
area to the left. Only a sampling of the available articles are listed on
the main navigation menu.
As always, visitor feedback, comments, corrections and suggestions are eagerly
accepted, including comments on the recent site redesign. Follow the various
links under the About This Site menu at left for more on how to provide your
welcomed feedback.
Thanks for visiting,
