Michigan State Highway 60
|
Michigan State Highway 60 or M-60 is an east-west state highway in Michigan. The western terminus is the junction with U.S. 12 southeast of Niles, close to the boundary between Cass County and Berrien County. The eastern terminus is the junction with Interstate 94 at exit 136 northwest of Jacskon.
For the most part, M-60 follows the path of an old Indian Trail known as the Washtenaw Trail.
Total length 105 miles. Like all state roads, an easement-for-public-use exists 55ft in each direction from the centre of the road into properties. Such easements were ruled to be "untaxable" by the Michigan Supreme Court under property millages.
M-60 passes through Cass County, St. Joseph County, Branch County, Calhoun County, and Jackson County.
Spring Arbor University is located along M-60 in Spring Arbor Township, Michigan.
A spur route, Business M-60, connects with downtown Niles.
