There are three business routes of US Highway 10 (US 10) in the state of Michigan. They serve as connections from the main highway into Reed City, Clare, and Midland. Additionally, there were another two business routes that connected US 10 to the downtowns of Flint and Pontiac. All these business routes are, or were, former sections of US 10 that were marked Business US Highway 10 (Bus. US 10) after the main highway was realigned to bypass the downtowns of the cities.
The Reed City Bus. US 10 was created by 1960 to follow Chestnut and Church streets into the community's central business district and through adjacent residential areas. In 1975 when US 10 was rerouted to follow the freeways around Clare, the former routing through downtown on McEwan and Fifth streets was redesignated as a business loop; it was also signed to provide connections between US 10 and what is now

Business US Highway 10 (Bus. US 10) is a
Fifth Street continues eastward and then southeasterly out of downtown and through residential areas. At Clarabella Road, the business loop crosses from Clare County into Isabella County before passing under the US 127 freeway without an interchange. Bus. US 10 runs parallel to the Pere Marquette Rail-Trail on Saginaw Road in a rural section of Isabella County before terminating at an interchange that connects it to eastbound US 10 in Wise Township. Through the city, the business loop has four lanes for traffic, but the rural segment in Isabella County has two.[14][15] According to MDOT, the agency which maintains the roadway, between 4,035 and 6,540 vehicles per day used the business loop on average daily in 2013.[6]
In 1919 when the state highway system was first numbered,[7] the east–west highway running through Clare was numbered M-20,[8] and it was renumbered to US 10 seven years later when the United States Numbered Highway System was created.[9] In late 1961, the US 10 freeway east of the city to Midland was finished, but the route through downtown remained part of US 10.[16][17] A freeway bypass north of Clare and Farwell opened in 1975, and US 10 was rerouted along the then-US 27 freeway to connect from the new bypass to the existing freeway east of the city, bypassing both cities. The section of US 10 in downtown Clare was designated Bus. US 10 at this time, running along then-Bus. US 27 to connect to US 27/US 10 north of downtown.[12][13] The section of former US 10 between Farwell and Clare became an extended M-115 in 1989.[18][19] In 2002, US 27 in Michigan was renumbered to US 127,[20] and the business loops were renumbered accordingly.[21]
