M-199 (Michigan highway)

Encyclopedia : M : M1 : M19 : M-199 (Michigan highway)



 

M-199 is a short highway in the U.S. state of Michigan. The western terminus of the 3.98 mile-long road is in Sheridan Township at exit 119 off I-94. The eastern terminus is a junction with BL I-94 in the city of Albion. The entire road is within Calhoun County. Most of the route outside of Albion is a two-lane blacktop. The road expands to four lanes inside the city.

For most of its length, starting from its eastern terminus at the junction with Eaton Road, M-199 follows the old route of Michigan Avenue (although it is now named "Austin Avenue" within the Albion city limits). It continues north on 25 1/2 Mile Road and 26 Mile Road to I-94. The route received the M-199 designation in 1998.

Although M-199 is nominally a "child" route of M-99, which also passes through Albion, the two routes do not officially connect. M-99 enters Albion from the south on Superior St. and turns to the east at the intersection with Michigan Ave. in downtown, while M-199 ends a few blocks northwest of that point.

From 1933 to 1939, an earlier designation of M-199 was for a short spur route from US 41 into Daggett in Menominee County.
