M-152 is a state highway route in the U.S. state of Michigan in Cass and Van Buren counties. The route has never extended past the Berrien County line onto Napier Avenue nor has it extented to M-140. According to Michigan Highways, M-152 is a prime candidate to be turned back to local control and was even offered to Cass County in the jurisdictional transfer that swapped M-205 for M-217 in 2002.^[1]

[edit] Route description

M-152 begins at an intersection with South County Line Road on the border between Van Buren and Berrien counties just west of Round Lake. Known as 92nd Avenue, M-152 then travels due east past the Sister Lakes area before turning south on 66th street. From there, the road passes between Dewey and Magician Lakes before returning to its easterly course where it assumes the name Dewey Lake Street. The route continues eastward for nearly three and a half miles before terminating at a junction with M-51.

[edit] History

M-152 was assumed into the state trunkline system in 1933. Aside from completing the pavement surfacing of the road in 1945, the route has remain unchanged since its inception.^[1]
