US Highway 41 ( AS 41 ) is part of the US Highway Number System that runs from Miami, Florida, to the Upper Peninsula of the state of Michigan, USA. In Michigan, it's a state trunkline highway that goes into the state via the Interstate Bridge between Marinette, Wisconsin, and Menominee, Michigan. The 278,769 miles (448,635 km) of US $ 41 located in Michigan serve as the main channel. Most highways are listed on the National Highway System. The various roads are a two-lane rural highway, a highway divided into four fragmented paths and Copper Range Lines National Scenic Byway. The northernmost community along the highway is the Copper Harbor at the end of the Keweenaw Peninsula. The trunkline ends in the cul-de-sac east of Fort Wilkins State Park after serving the Upper Middle Peninsula and Copper Country area in Michigan.
US $ 41 through farmland and forest land, and along the shoreline of Lake Superior. This highway is included in the Lake Superior Circle Tour and the Lake Michigan Circle Tour and passes through the Hiawatha National Forest and Keweenaw National Historical Park. Historic buildings along the trunkline include the Marquette Branch Prison, the Peshekee River Bridge and the Quincy Mine. The highway is known for a number of historic bridges such as a lift bridge, the northernmost span in the state and a structure called "one of Michigan's most important bridge" by the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT). Seven designations of the memorial highway have been applied to trunkline sections since 1917, one of them being named a Civil War general.
USÃ, 41 was first designated as US Highway in 1926. Part of the highway originally served as part of the Military Way, the relationship between Fort Wilkins and Fort Howard during the Civil War. US $ 41 replaces the original M-15 appointment from a highway that is dated back to the formation of Michigan's state trunkline highway system. The M-15 ran from Menominee via Marquette to Houghton and ended up in Copper Harbor. Reorganization and construction projects have expanded the highway into four lanes in the Delta and Marquette districts and have created three business rounds from major highways.

Route description
USÃ,41 is the main highway for Michigan traffic on the Upper Peninsula. The highway 278,769 miles (448,635 km) consists of two lanes; it is not divided except for the part that coincides with US 2 near Escanaba and M-28 near Marquette. US $ 41/M-28 is a four-lane highway along the "Marquette Bypass", and the highway segment in Delta and Marquette County has four lanes. The route from the southern tip to downtown Houghton is part of the National Highway System, a road system deemed essential to the nation's economy, defense and mobility. Part of the trunkline is on a circle tour of Lake Superior and Lake Michigan.
Menominee to Rapid River
US $ 41 entered Michigan on the Interstate Bridge connecting Marinette, Wisconsin, and Menominee, Michigan. In the town of Menominee, US $ 41 follows 10th Avenue and 10th Street west of the city center. The highway meets the southern end of the M-35, with Menominee-Marinette Airport to the west, and the waters of Green Bay are less than 1,000 feet (305 m) to the east, after 10th Street out of town. Trunkline runs north past farmland in downtown Menominee County, Wallace, Stephenson, and the twin communities of Carney and Nadeau. At Powers, US $ 41 joins US 2; the two highways coincided and turned east toward Escanaba. US $ 2/US $ 41 crossing into Hannahville Indian Community in Harris community in Menominee County and Bark River in Delta County. The boundary line between the two communities marks the boundary between the Middle and East time zones.
To the west of the city center of Escanaba, US $ 2/US $ 41 joins the M-35 at the intersection of Ludington Street and Lincoln Road, the center of the Escanaba road network. Trunkline entered Escanaba from the west on Ludington Street, turning north on Lincoln Road, and joined the M-35. The combined road then runs northward by Little Bay de Noc using a four-lane road divided into Gladstone city, where the M-35 turns west along the 4 Avenue North. US $ 2/US $ 41 goes on the four lane expressway to the north to Rapid River at the end of Little Bay de Noc. There, US $ 2 turns east, and US $ 41 turns north and inland to cross the Upper Peninsula.
The US $ 41 between Menominee and Escanaba describes anomalies in highway routing: between these two cities the M-35 is the country's shortest trunkline highway. Under the guidance of the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, US Highways will follow the most direct lane between two locations, but US $ 41 goes into the interior and the M-35 moves more directly to the coastline of Lake Michigan. According to the 2007 MDOT state highway map, route 41 US runs 65 miles (105 km) versus 55 miles (89 km) to the M-35. The original map for the US Highway System showed US 41 moving north from Powers on a direct connection to Marquette. This route will be more direct than the current US 41 route via Escanaba and Rapid River, but has not been built yet.
Rapid River to Covington
This US 41 stretch flows north through the western edge of the Hiawatha National Forest. At Trenary, $ 41 turns northwest through the southwest corner of County Alger, crossing into Marquette County north of Kiva. The M-94 follows US 41 for about 2 miles (3 km) near Skandia, before turning west to give access to K. I. Saywer, the former air force base. US $ 41 continues north to the Chocolay Town community in Harvey. It meets the eastern crossroads with the M-28 at Harvey, and two highways run simultaneously for nearly 60 miles (97 km), where they follow the Superior Lake Superior Tour.
US $ 41/M-28 runs north along Lake Superior's coastline, passes the Marquette Branch's Prison and cross the Carp River before climbing the Shiras hill on the way to Marquette town, into the city on Front Street. In the south of the city center, the highway turns west on the Marquette Bypass, a four-lane highway complete with two overpasses. Shortcuts move traffic around the previous US $ 41/M-28 route along Front and Washington roads, routes used for US Business 41 (Bus US $ 41) to 2005. West of Washington Street, US $ 41/M -28 following a highly trafficked business corridor. Average 2006 annual traffic (AADT, annual traffic total divided by 365) along this corridor ranges from 31,700 to 34,700 vehicles. US $ 41/M-28 boarded the hilly terrain to the towns of Negaunee and Ishpeming, heading west and slightly south. The two cities hosted the Bus. M-28, which was once designated as US $ 41 as well. Between the twin cities, US $ 41/M-28 skirts of Lake Teal in Negaunee and then narrowed to two lanes to the west of Ishpeming.
US $ 41/M-28 continues west through the Marquette County countryside and passes along the northern shore of Lake Michigamme between Champion and Michigamme, across the Peshekee River. In the east of Baraga District, the highway runs along the isthmus between Lake George and Lake Ruth in the Three Lakes community. Further west, US $ 41 meets the northern terminal of US $ 141, which marks the west junction with the M-28 near Covington, and the end of the M-28 concurrency.
Covington to Copper Harbor
US $ 41 turned north solo from Covington, across the Sturgeon River, en route to the historic sawmill city of Alberta. Henry Ford built a village to serve sawmills in 1935. The Alberta plant supplies wood for Ford Motors until it is closed by Henry Ford II; the property was donated to Michigan Technological University (MTU) in 1954.
Continuing north from Alberta, US $ 41 enters the town of L'Anse on the east side of Keweenaw Bay, rounding the bay to the town of Baraga. Both cities are part of the Keweenaw Bay Indian Community. US $ 41 continues along the northern bay coast to Houghton County, turning along Portage Lake near Chassell.
US $ 41 entered Houghton along Townsend Drive on the MTU campus. After crossing the campus, he used College Avenue to downtown. There, US $ 41 is split along one-way streets from Sheldon Avenue to the north and Montezuma Avenue for traffic to the south. The two roads join the west of the city center at the southern end of the Portage Lake Lift Bridge. Downtown Houghton marks the commencement of the National Country Trail National Scenic Byway.
North of the lift bridge, US $ 41 turns west through downtown Hancock using one-way couples from Quincy North Road and Hancock Road to the south. Trunkline then follows Lincoln Drive after combining the two directions to the west of the city center. The highway continued up to Quincy Hill and out of town, past Quincy Mine at the top of the hill. North of Hancock, US $ 41 passes through Houghton County Memorial Airport before reaching Calumet and Laurium town. US $ 41 merged with M-26 in Calumet, and they followed the center of the Keweenaw Peninsula to the Phoenix community. The M-26 turns northwest in Phoenix to pass through Eagle River and Eagle Harbor, while US $ 41 spins east through the rural communities of Central and Delaware. Both highways meet for the last time in Copper Harbor where the M-26 ends. US $ 41 turns east on Gratiot Street to drive through town to Fort Wilkins State Park. A mileage mark at Copper Harbor provides a distance down US $ 41 to Miami, Florida, as 1,990 miles (3,203 km). The road continues east, past Fanny Hooe Creek near the state park. After passing through the park entrance, USÃ, 41 ends up in a cul-de-sac, marked by a large wooden board.

History
There are two major eras of US $ 41 history. The first dates back to the Civil War and railroads built by the federal government. The Military Road was built to connect the Copper State with Wisconsin. Following the establishment of the state trunkline road system, the Military Road segment is used for the M-15, the 41st US predecessor.
Military Path
The northernmost part of the modern 41 United States between Houghton and Copper Harbor dates back to the 19th century as the Military Way. It is one of 13 roads built between 1817 and 1864 by the federal government. Road construction is proposed as early as two years after the US acquired the last land on the Upper Peninsula. Congress requested Secretary of War William Wilkins for funding to build such a road in 1844, as the area depended on land connections to Green Bay, Wisconsin, up to six months a year for supplies and letters. Estimates for a 220-mile (350 km), 33-foot (10 m) long road are $ 37,400 (equivalent to $ 1,000,000 in 2016). This problem died until 1848 when the Michigan Legislature petitioned Congress for support to build to connect Green Bay to Keweenaw Bay. The appeal was not met by the government, but private groups entered. The mail service is available onshore once a month during the winter of Green Bay. In 1857, Legislature passed a law to provide a road from southern Eagle Harbor to Ontonagon. The road was extended south to the country line under two laws in 1859.
The Civil War refocused the discussion of the road. There were fears that England would enter on the Confederate side during the early days of the war. British troops are as close as Michigan to Ontario, and more than half the copper used in the US comes from mines along the proposed road. Control of the area can be done by seizing Soo Locks in Sault Ste. Marie, broke the communication path through the Great Lakes. If a key falls into an enemy force, no troops or equipment can be transferred to the Land of Copper except by land. The road was also needed for five or six months of that year that transportation on the Great Lakes was hindered by ice or stormy weather.
Congress passed a law to build a military cart on March 3, 1863 from Fort Wilkins to Houghton and then south to the country line. The road was laid out in 1864 following what is today the M-26 between Copper Harbor and Phoenix, USÃ, 41 south to Houghton, M-26 south to Winona and Federal Forest Highway 16 (FFH-16) to the country lane. The Wisconsin Authority runs the road along what is now Highway 29 between Green Bay and Shawano and Highway 55 to the north to the state line. Military Road will connect Fort Wilkins with Fort Howard near Green Bay.
The laws governing the construction of the Military Road set a five-year deadline for development. The war wiped out workers in mining, sluggish and shipping as well as soldiers from the available workforce, and Congress extended an additional 21-month deadline in June 1868. The second extension was granted in May 1870. The Wisconsin section of the highway was completed on June 20, 1870. Segment Houghton County was completed in January 1871. The Keweenaw County section was completed in August 1871. The third and final extension of the deadline was required in April 1872, and the road was completed southward to the state line in September 1873, shifting the southern segment of the Upper Peninsula west to the modern US 45 corridor in place of the FFH-16 alignment.
In payments for the completion of the road, close to 221,000 hectares (89,000 ha) was awarded by the federal government to the company, including some 174,000 hectares (70,000 ha) to Dr James Ayer of Lowell, Massachusetts, for his investment in the company. Most of the remaining land was given to the company behind the Portage Lake Canal near Houghton and Hancock. The ownership of Ayer was controlled by the guardian of his land after his death in July 1878. Several thousand hectares were sold from time to time, and the guardians benefited from the sale of timber and mineral rights. The profits were exhausted in 1921, and the rest were sold to loggers from Grand Rapids for $ 2.3 million (equivalent to $ 25 million in 2016).
The railroads built near Military Road attract more traffic than roads. The road was not built properly; except in winter when the weather froze on the ground or covered it in the snow, the road was barely passable. Most highway 140 miles (225 km) was converted into state trunkline between 1913 and 1920, mostly as M-15 or M-26. The remains of the original Military Road can be found as a back trail labeled "The Old Military Road" on the map, or as a street in Ripley near Hancock called "Military Road".
Trunkline country
The first state trunkline highway designated along the modern 41-way US line is the M-15, used as far back as 1919. The 1925 draft plan for the establishment of the US Highway System will replace the M-15s with three different ones. US Highways. Between Menominee and Powers, the M-15 will be US 41. East Powers to Rapid River, the trunkline will be US 2. The next segment between Rapid River and Humboldt is planned as US $ 102 while the rest north to Copper Harbor is initially unplanned as part of the new road system. When the system was made on November 11, 1926, US $ 41 was the only US Highway directed along the M-15 alignment, and US $ 41 was extended north to Copper Harbor. The original map shows US 41 following an unattended alignment between Powers and Marquette. The new US appointment of 41 instead directed to follow the previous M-15.
The 1927 edition of the official Michigan highway service map was the first to show the extended M-28 throughout the USÃ, 41 to Marquette County and east over the M-25 to Munising and Newberry, before ending in downtown Sault Ste. Marie. In Negaunee, the M-28 is shown along the previous M-15 route between Negaunee and Marquette 10 miles (16 km), while US 41 ran along the M-35 portion. This southern loop M-28 route lasted until about 1936, when the M-28 was shown along with AS 41. The previous route is now Marquette County Road 492 (CR 492). Around 1930, the northern terminal of US $ 41 was extended east from Copper Harbor to Fort Wilkins State Park. Another rearrangement shown in 1937 marked the transfer of US $ 41/M-28 from downtown Ishpeming and Negaunee. This former routing then becomes a Bus. M-28. The highway was changed due north between Rapid River and Trenary according to the 1938 service map. US $ 41 was completely paved in 1951. The last two sections to be paved were in Baraga County and Keweenaw County.
The M-35 was routed at $ 41 between Negaunee and Baraga in 1953. This additional concretion linked two previously unbroken M-35 segments. The Portage Lake Bridge opened in 1959 at a cost of $ 13 million (equivalent to $ 84 million in 2016).
Marquette Bypass opened in November 1963 as a four-lane expressway south of downtown Marquette at a cost of $ 1.7 million (equivalent to $ 105 million in 2016). Washington and the front streets of Marquette were redesigned as Buses. US $ 41 at this time. While toll roads are built, large quantities of jasper are exposed, and mineral-made gifts are presented to local and state politicians. A set of cufflinks to give to President John F. Kennedy was never presented because he was killed in Dallas just hours after the Marquette Bypass was opened for traffic.
Concurrency with the M-35 through Marquette and Baraga districts was removed in January 1969. The M-35 western Baraga was designated as the new M-38 and the M-35 shortened to the current northern terminal. Another section of the toll road from USÃ, 41 is denoted along US $ 2/US $ 41 between Gladstone and Rapid River in 1972. A Bus. M-28 title added to Bus. US $ 41 on the MDOT map in 1975, making it similar to the former Bus. US $ 41/Bus. M-28 appointment with Bus. M-28 in Ishpeming and Negaunee. The second appointment was removed in 1982.
US $ 41 in the State of Copper was recognized on September 26, 1995, as the state's first legacy heritage route (now Pure Michigan Byway). The first section is assigned from Central to Copper Harbor. The appointment was extended southward to Mohawk in 2002 and Houghton in 2004. On September 22, 2005, US 41 north of Houghton established the Copper Rural Line from the National Scenic Byways program. Part of this highway was named one of 10 "Best Beautiful Roads in America" ​​in November 2014.
Construction began on November 1, 2004, to replace Interstate Bridge which brought US $ 41 between Marinette, Wisconsin, and Menominee. The project was closed on November 22, 2005, when a new bridge was opened for traffic. The ribbon-cutting ceremony was held on December 3, 2005, to celebrate the replacement of the 1929 structure. In 2011, MDOT raised the speed limit along the toll section of Delta County to 65 mph (105 mph/h), although truck traffic remained fixed at 55 mph (89 km/h) through 2017.
Marquette Roundabout
MDOT launched a plan on March 31, 2009, to rebuild the intersection between Front Street and the eastern end of Marquette Bypass during 2010 as a roundabout, replacing several intersecting highways connecting northern and southern Front Street with US $ 41/M-28 via the crossing there is. The previous junction configuration was dated back to November 1963. It has been labeled as "dangerous and [causes] significant traffic delays" by the replacement designers. A traffic study concluded in 2007 that the intersection would require either a roundabout or traffic signal with multiple spin trails to accommodate traffic needs in the area. MDOT decides to support a two-lane, 150-foot (46 m) boulevard that maintains the right turning path from the previous junction overlap. This path will be used by right turn traffic to skip the circle at the center of the intersection.
The MDOT engineers praised the nature of design that flows constant as a benefit to new intersections, and urban planners promote improved aspects of the project's safety. Both sides stated that the planned intersection was cheaper than the conventional stop lights. Residents have expressed concern about snow piracy and truck traffic at the intersection. The designers consulted Avon, Colorado, officials in which some roundabouts were located in locations that averaged over 300 inches (760 cm) of annual snowfall. The designers plan the size of new intersections to accommodate truck traffic. MDOT has stated that many of the concerns expressed are due to misconceptions and unfounded assumptions about design. The department held an informed meeting with the population on 15 April 2010 before construction began. Topics range from emergency vehicles, plowing, trucks, accidents and turning plans.
Construction started on the project in May. One lane of traffic in each direction is maintained for US $ 41/M-28. Motorists seeking access to the city center are repatriated through Grove Street or Lakeshore Boulevard. The City Center Development Authority has plans to buy billboards that help drive customers to the downtown shopping district. A section of the intersection opened in July for traffic from the south turning west. The northbound path to the city center opened in early August, and the city held a ribbon-cutting ceremony on August 19, 2010. The remaining trails opened the next day. To address residents' concerns about truck traffic through intersections, the mayor noted that large wooden trucks managed to navigate the roundabout after the tape was cut. "It's just driving everywhere.Anyone who's wondering if it's big enough, can you get firetruck on it? Yes, you can," said Mayor John Kivela.
Keweenaw Bay Relocation
In 2010, officials from MDOT announced a $ 2.3 million project to move a 1.6 mile (2.6 km) 41 AS section about 100 feet (30 m) inland over a set of five mile cliffs (8.0 km) north of Baraga. Sandstone cliffs erode alongside Keweenaw Bay, and a 2007 study from MTU said that action at that time would be needed in a decade. This department has funding in 2010 and decided to take the project at that time. The local houses are not affected by the project, although the state must purchase property to accommodate that shift. Parallel rail lines have been removed in the project. The train service from Baraga to Chassell has been suspended for several years, and the right path has been overgrown; rail will be replaced if needed in the future. The project was completed in October 2010.
Historical bridge
Seven bridges along the corridor USÃ, 41 have been recognized for their historic character by various organizations. Six of the seven are listed on the MDOT Historic Historical Inventory; the seventh one not listed by MDOT is on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and Michigan State Register of Historic Places (SRHS) along with the other four.
Portage Lake Lift Bridge
The Portage Lake Lift Bridge connects Hancock and Houghton towns by crossing the Portage Waterway, the Portage Lake arm that crosses the Keweenaw Peninsula. A canal connects the last few miles from the lake's arm to Lake Superior to the northwest.
This lift bridge has a central part that can be lifted from a low point of 4 feet (1.2 m) from a distance above water to a distance of 32 feet (9.8 m) to allow the ship to pass underneath. The Portage Lake Lift Bridge is the widest and heaviest two-storey vertical lift bridge in the world. The lower deck of the span was originally open to rail traffic when it was built in 1959, but this level is now closed for trains and used in winter for snowmobile traffic.
The lift bridge is the last of several previous crossings in the waters. A wooden swing bridge was built in 1875. The newer ironwork bridge was built in 1897; This structure was partially destroyed in 1905 when it was struck by a ship. The second intersection was rebuilt in 1906 and remained in operation until the lift bridge opened in December 1959. The current bridge was last used for rail traffic in the summer of 1982, after the Soo Line rail line north of Houghton was abandoned starting in 1976. Section is being left in a central position for nine months warmer in a year so vehicular traffic can use the lower deck of lift ranges and cruise ships can pass under the bridge. In the winter, the lift range is lowered so that snowmobiles and skiers can use the lower deck while cars and trucks use the upper deck.
Interstate Bridge
The Interstate Bridge was built in 1929 for $ 700,000 (equivalent to $ 4.5 million in 2016) to bring US $ 41 over the Menominee River on the state line. This range replaces a series of bridges built to connect Marinette, Wisconsin, and Menominee, Michigan, across the river. The first bridge was built in 1865 with the second built in 1872 which was replaced in 1929 with a third bridge. The third cross is 850 feet (259 m) long, consisting of eleven spans over 80 feet (24 m). The bridge was rehabilitated in 1970 in a project that includes deck widening and replacing guard rails. Another construction project in 1999 improved the Michigan side and the slough bridge section of the Wisconsin structure side; the project closed the bridge for six months.
The Interstate Bridge was completely replaced from November 1, 2004, in a joint project between MDOT and the Wisconsin Department of Transportation. The 13-month project is budgeted at a cost of $ 6.45 million (equivalent to $ 8.1 million in 2016). Demolition begins in the middle of a cross, sawing the deck into pieces to be discarded. This reconstruction was completed ahead of schedule, and the range was reopened on November 22, 2005. The project completely replaced the bridge over the waterline with wider traffic lanes, new bike lanes and wider sidewalks. Images of wild rice carved into the concrete because "Menominee" in local Menominee language means "wild rice". These sculptures are added to other decorative elements placed on new bridges including fences and lamp posts. The new Interstate Bridge was dedicated on December 3, 2005, in a ribbon-cutting ceremony that replicated the 1930 ceremony at the previous intersection.
registered bridge NRHP
The other five bridges are registered in NRHP and Michigan SRHS as well as at MDOT Historic Bridge Inventory. The first is in Limestone Township in Alger County. Designated Trunk Lane No. 264, it took the King Road across the River Hering along the former US $ 41 jail built in 1919. Built from two 35-feet (11 m) through a girder, the span keeps carrying traffic even though there is no longer on the state trunkline highway.
Drivers can not use the Peshekee River Bridge in the southern United States 41/M-28 in Michigamme Township in western Marquette County. This structure was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1999 for its engineering and architectural interests. MDOT has listed it on their Historic Bridge Inventory as "one of Michigan's most important bridge vehicles". This was the first bridge designed by the Michigan State Highway Department (MSHD), a pioneer for MDOT, in 1914. As the first crossing, it was designated "Trunk Line Bridge No. 1" and served as a prototype for hundreds of concrete-like bridges through the girder was built in the state before its design fell in 1930. It was bypassed by a new structure built over the Peshekee River for US 41/M-28 and later abandoned as a road, deteriorating in a county park.
Another abandoned bridge is now privately owned and used at the mouth of the Backwater River in Keweenaw Bay near L'Anse. This range was built in 1918 for $ 4,536 (equivalent to $ 49,116 in 2016). This is a 80 foot (24 m) truss design now located on private property. The abandoned bridge was listed on the National Register in 1999.
One of the bridges is still used across the Sturgeon River in Baraga District, which is known locally as the Canyon Falls Bridge. The structure was completed in 1948 as a steel arch bridge to reach the river near the waterfall as part of a $ 41 reconstruction project between Ishpeming and L'Anse. The intersections have a main range of 128 feet (39 m) flanked by two 52-foot spans (16 m).
The last historic bridge in the USÃ, 41 is located near the eastern end of the eastern Copper Harbor. The Fanny Hooe River crossing was registered with NRHP in 1999, but by 2012, MDOT has yet to include a structure on historic bridge inventory online. The river junction is just west of Fort Wilkins State Park entrance. MSHD and Keweenaw County Road Commission designed and built ranges from 1927-28 to $ 8,132 (equivalent to $ 91,707 in 2016). This bridge is unique for decorating rocks at a 25-foot (8 m) range above the river. These stones include field stones that are not normally associated with Michigan highway bridges. The intersection has remained in operation since construction unchanged.
Memorial Appointment
Seven warning designations have been applied to parts of USÃ, 41. Some of these titles follow other highways that run in conjunction with US 41. Most of the titles are no longer used, but the memorials of Jacobetti and Veteran still have signs posted beside the road.
The Great Lakes Car Route was founded in 1917 by the Upper Peninsula Development Bureau. As the forerunner of the Great Lakes Circle Tours many years later, the route was followed "... a circular journey along the shores of Lake Michigan and Superior and Green Bay..." The route follows the 41st modern United States from the M-28 intersection at Harvey to Copper Harbor. Branches of the route follow US $ 2/US $ 41 between Powers and Rapid River. The name was no longer used before its first anniversary due to World War I. The original route was intended to attract motorists to drive around Lake Michigan; side trips to Lake Superior are disturbed from this mission.
Sheridan Road was created in the early 20th century connecting Chicago with Fort Sheridan in the north of the city. Both the street and the fort were named in honor of Philip Sheridan, General Union during the Civil War. Sheridan, who served as 2nd Michigan Cavalry colonel in 1862, was then promoted to the rank of a great general during the war. The Greater Sheridan Road Association began promoting the extension of the road south to St. Louis and north through Wisconsin and Michigan to end at Fort Wilkins at Copper Harbor in 1922. The road follows the US predecessor, the M-15, and includes many road signs that carry the Sheridan silhouettes mounted on Rienzi's horse. Cities along the way were encouraged to rename city streets as Sheridan Road on Labor Day 1923. Roads were promoted until the Great Depression of the 1930s. What remains are signs in Menominee that note that First Street was Sheridan Road.
The Townsend National Highway was named for Charles E. Townsend, a former congressman and senator from Michigan. As a senator, he introduced a federal highway federal bill in 1919. The Michigan Good Street Association promotes a highway in its name between Mobile, Alabama, and Michigan. The Michigan segment follows a number of highways through two peninsula, including the modern US 41 between Harvey and Calumet. Just Townsend Drive in Houghton that retains its partial name.
Memory Lane was created in 1947 along USÃ, 41 in Baraga. The local Lions Club planted over 100 red maple trees with recommendations from the state highway department in honor of World War I veterans and World War II.
The establishment of Amvets Memorial Drive was made for a share of US $ 2/US $ 41/M-35 between the northern boundary of Escanaba and CR. 426 in Delta County. The American Veterans (AMVETS) organization in Michigan petitioned the Michigan Legislature to give this appointment which was granted under the Public Act 144 in 1959.
The D. J. Jacobetti Memorial Highway follows the USÃ, 41 segment along with the M-28 between Harvey and the Ishpeming-Negaunee city limits in Marquette County. This stipulation was made in 1986 and continued east along the M-28 in honor of the longest member of the Michigan Legislature, elected to a record 21 terms before his death in 1994.
A section of USÃ, 41 is one of six unrelated Veterans Memorial Highway moorings in Michigan. The designation of the Upper Peninsula follows the western end of the M-28, including the $ 41 share between Ishpeming and Covington.

There are three business rounds for US $ 41: Ishpeming-Negaunee, Marquette, and Baraga. Only business circles serving Ishpeming and Negaunee are still trunkline maintained by the state, but are no longer called Buses. US $ 41. US $ 41/M-28 was relocated to pass the city center of two cities in 1937. The highway through downtown Ishpeming and Negaunee then brought the appointment of US $ 41/ALTÃ,-M-28 before it was designated as a Bus. M-28 in 1958. The western end of the business circle was transferred to local government controls when Bus. The M-28 was moved with Lakeshore Drive in 1999.
Bus. USÃ, 41 at Marquette was first shown on the map in 1964 after the construction of Marquette Bypass. It was then called Bus. US $ 41/Bus. M-28 on the map in 1975; this second appointment was removed from the map in 1982. The entire business circle was changed back into local controls in the "exchange route" between Marquette City and MDOT announced in early 2005. This proposal transferred jurisdiction to undocumented M-554 and business routes from country to city. The state will take the jurisdiction over the McClellan Avenue segment to be used to extend the M-553 to AS 41/M-28. In addition, MDOT will pay $ 2.5 million (equivalent to $ 3 million in 2016) for the reconstruction work planned for 2007. The transfer will increase Marquette's maintenance and maintenance costs by $ 26,000 (equivalent to $ 31,492 by 2016 ) and put the financial burden of replacing traffic lights in the city to come. On October 10, 2005, MDOT and Marquette transferred jurisdiction over three highways. As a result, Bus. US $ 41 is disabled when the local government takes over the Washington and Front roads. As a result of decommissioning, the 2006 map shows no previous business circle.
The third business circle was in Baraga in the early 1940s. As shown on the time map, USÃ, 41 was moved in Baraga between the publications of December 1, 1939, and April 15, 1940, the MSHD map. A business circle follows the old route through the city center. The last map showing the loop was published on July 1, 1941. Bus. US $ 41 was shown under local control on the map of 15 June 1942.
