M-144 was the designation assigned to two former state trunkline highways in the US state of Michigan. The original version of M-144 existed as a 0.388-mile-long (0.624 km) spur connecting the Michigan State Police headquarters in East Lansing to Michigan Avenue, which was signed M-39 at the time. It was designated by 1937 and decommissioned in 1939, after which time the designation was shifted to the second version of M-144 further north in Roscommon and Oscoda counties.

Route description

As it existed at the time, M-144 started at the headquarters for the Michigan State Police next to the campus of Michigan State College, now Michigan State University. The highway ran north along Harrison Road next to campus and across the Red Cedar River. North of the river, the trunkline terminated at the junction with Michigan Avenue (then M-39, now the unsigned M-143).[4][6]

History

The first incarnation of M-144 was designated by 1937 to serve as the connector to the state police headquarters.[1][2] The highway was decommissioned in 1939.[4][5]

Major intersections

The entire highway was in East Lansing, Ingham County.
