As a way to reduce confusion along the
US-27/US-127 corridor, the entire corridor will now be known as US-127, the
Michigan Department of Transportation has announced.
"By having just one designation along this busy north/south route, it will
eliminate the confusion and uncertainty for residents and visitors to
Michigan," said State Transportation Director Gregory J. Rosine. "Naming the
entire corridor with one designation makes things much simpler."
Starting in the spring of 2002, crews will begin replacing all US-27 signs
north of Lansing to where it meets I-75 just north of Higgins Lake, and
along the business routes. All signs are expected to be converted to US-127
by the fall of 2002.
