M-59 (Michigan highway)
Encyclopedia : M : M5 : M59 : M-59 (Michigan highway)
M-59 is a commuter's highway in the Metro and University region of the US state of Michigan. This highway is a scenic highway at some portions. Its western terminus is near Howell, MI at I-96. It's eastern terminus is near I-94 near M-29's western terminus.
This highway has a freeway portion from Pontiac, MI to Utica, MI. That segment of freeway almost touches the Van Dyke Expressway (M-53). If only it could, the VDE wouldn't be a discrete segment of freeway.
The freeway-to-freeway interchange at I-75 is severely out-of-date. It is a cloverleaf, built in an era of much less traffic than currently uses it. There are plans to significantly upgrade the interchange, removing it's weaving problems, but funding is, of course, a big issue. Therefore, the upgrade is years away at best.
