M-85 (Michigan highway)
Encyclopedia : M : M8 : M85 : M-85 (Michigan highway)
M-85 is known as Fort Street or Fort Road for its entire length.
M-85 was designated to service Downriver communities southwest of Detroit, Michigan bordering the Detroit River as the Detroit-Toledo Expressway (originally ALT US 24, later I-75) was being completed further inland. Its southern terminus is with I-75 at the south end of Woodhaven, and its northern terminus is at Griswold Street in downtown Detroit.
M-85 was extended beyond its previous terminus at I-75/Schaefer Road to replace M-3's designation along Fort Street from Clark Street to Griswold, when a number of jurisdiction changes relating to the Campus Martius Park development resulted in downtown portions of M-3 being shifted to local control in 2001. Portions of Fort Street that had not been part of the trunkline system since US 25 was removed from Michigan were added to M-85.
