Business Loop I-94 - Battle Creek
Business Loop I-94 in Battle Creek follows old U.S. 12 along a 14.23 mile alignment (Bessert, 2026) from Exit 92 east to Exit 104. The initial stretch runs concurrent with M-37 along Columbia Avenue and Skyline Drive to the west of W.K. Kellogg Airport (BTL). The tandem combine with M-96 along a one mile stretch of Dickman Road along the north side of the airport. M-37 leaves Dickman Road for Helmer Road north followed by the departure of M-96 via Helmer Road south. This leaves Business Loop I-94 to continue solo on Dickman Road east to the Battle Creek central business district.
Business Loop I-94 meets I-194/M-66 east of Lower Pond. A convoluted route ensues east from there along Main Street northwest, Hamblin Avenue northeast and Michigan Avenue southeast. Business Loop I-94 (Michigan Avenue) runs east to combine with M-96 (Columbia Avenue), with the two overlapping to M-311 and Interstate 94.
Direct ramps between Business Loop I-94 east to I-94 east and from the freeway west to Michigan Avenue were removed between 2008 and 2011.
