Interstate 94 Business Loop or BL I-94 is a 4.42-mile (7.11 km) highway looping from the I-94 freeway through downtown Albion. It follows the routing of a former BUS US 12. The highway begins at exit 121 on I-94 where it runs along Eaton Avenue, Austin Avenue, Superior Street, and Michigan Avenue until the highway intersects I-94 exit 124 near downtown Albion.
August 15, 1960 marked the opening of the I-94/US 12 freeway in Calhoun County. At this time, Eaton Avenue was transferred to state control, marking the debut of BUS US 12 in Albion. BUS US 12 used Easton Avenue and other portions of the former US 12 through Albion. Later that year, BUS US 12 became BL I-94 in preparation to move the US 12 designation south to replace US 112. The highway was concurrently designated with M-99 from Superior Street to the eastern terminus. M-199 intersected BL I-94 north of the M-99 junction and ran along a portion of the former US 12.

Famous quotes containing the word business:
“As for your friend, my prospective reader, I hope he ignores Fort Sumter, and “Old Abe,” and all that; for that is just the most fatal, and, indeed, the only fatal weapon you can direct against evil ever; for, as long as you know of it, you are particeps criminis. What business have you, if you are an “angel of light,” to be pondering over the deeds of darkness, reading the New York Herald, and the like.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
