M-110 was the designation of a former state trunkline highway in the US state of Michigan. The highway was a 1.715-mile-long (2.760 km) spur that provided access from US Highway 31 (US 31) to Orchard Beach State Park. The highway was designated in 1927 and lasted until 2003.

Route description

The southern terminus of M-110 was at a junction with US 31 near

unincorporated community of Parkdale. The landscape contains fields as the roadway approaches the forest at Orchard Beach State Park. M-110 continues past the park and terminated at an intersection with Kott Road.[5][6]

History

A highway was first designated along Lakeshore Road in 1927 bearing the M-110 designation.[1] The highway was improved the following year.[7] That year, M-110 was listed as one of a few rural highways that was lighted.[8] In a 1972 profile, M-110 was listed as one of the 13 shortest highways in the state, noting its connection to Orchard Beach State Park.[9]

In 2003, the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) transferred M-110 to the Manistee County Road Commission.[2][3] In the last traffic surveys before the transfer, MDOT determined that an average of 2,335 vehicles used M-110 on a daily basis in 2002.[10]

Major intersections

The entire highway was in Manistee Township, Manistee County.
