  • Abstract:
    When the Joint Board on Interstate Highways released its report on the proposed U.S. numbered highway plan in October 1925, the report identified U.S. 2, the northernmost east-west route, from Houlton, Maine, to Bonners Ferry, Idaho. (U.S. 2 was used instead of U.S. 0 for this major route.) The route listings included only one branch of U.S. 2, designated U.S. 102 and located in Michigan from Gladstone to Marquette and Humboldt. By the time the American Association of State Highway Officials (AASHO) approved the U.S. numbered highway system in November 1926, U.S. 2 retained the same termini, but U.S. 102 had shifted. It was designated from U.S. 2 at Crystal Falls via Covington to a junction with U.S. 41 south of L'Anse. Neither the Joint Board nor AASHO used "202" (i.e., a second branch of U.S. 2) or any other branch number of U.S. 2 in the original designations.
