M-146 was a state trunkline highway in the US state of Michigan that initially served as a bypass for traffic going around Port Huron and as a short cut for traffic between U.S. Highway 25 (US 25) and M-21. Later it connected to the Blue Water Bridge before it was truncated to its final form. Segments of M-146 still exist today as state highways as part of Interstate 94 (I-94) and I-69 and the Lapeer Connector.

Route description

As the highway last existed, its southern end was at an intersection with M-21 (Lapeer Road) in a residential area of Port Huron west of the Black River. Following what is today named the Lapeer Connector, M-146 ran northward for about 0.9 miles (1.4 km) to an interchange with I-94/US 25 where it terminated.[3][6]

History

When the route debuted in 1933 it served as a connector between US 25 in southwest Port Huron and M-21 along the west side of town.

Wadhams and downtown Port Huron, the M-146 designation was removed from the state trunkline system,[3][4] and has not been used since. The connector between Lapeer Street and present-day I-94 is now known as the Lapeer Connector[14] and Connector 69.[15]

Major intersections

The entire highway was in St. Clair County.
