U.S. Route 27 In Michigan
US Highway 27 (US 27) is a part of the US Highway System that now runs from Miami, Florida to Fort Wayne, Indiana. In the US state of Michigan, it was a state trunkline highway that previously entered the state south of Coldwater and ended in the area of the Straits of Mackinac. Old 27 is the former route of US 27 that was bypassed by newer freeways in Michigan. Before the construction of Interstate 75 (I-75) in the Northern Lower Peninsula of Michigan, US 27 was the main highway north from Grayling to Cheboygan. For a time, US 27 even extended from Cheboygan to St. Ignace over the Mackinac Bridge. This section of highway ran between Grayling and I-75 north of Indian River (continuing on as M-27 northward).
