“ Please advise the Michigan Department of Transportation that their request to eliminate reference to this route for all signing and mapping purposes is approved. This approval does not remove the route from the Interstate System nor does it change its official designation as Interstate Highway 296. All official correspondence, fiscal documents, project numbering, and records should continue to refer to this route as I-296. ”

“ This action has been coordinated with the Office of Engineering and the Office of Traffic Operations.
