| The city has Kalamazoo-Battle Creek International
Airport, which also serves Battle Creek, Michigan, used by several
airlines. There is a downtown Amtrak passenger station, which
also serves as a bus (coach) station. The Kal-Haven Trail, heavily
used by bicyclists and snowmobilers, starts a few miles west
of the city limits, though there are plans to extend the trail
to the downtown. |
| Kalamazoo is served by highways Interstate 94,
U.S. Highway 131, and Michigan State Highway 43 and Michigan
State Highway 96, listed as M-43 and M-96 respectively. It was
on the original Territorial Road in Michigan of the 1800s, which
started in Detroit and ran to Lake Michigan. Much of that, but
not all, later became Old U.S. 12--the "old" designation
came about when I-94 was built parallel to it--and also was
called Red Arrow Highway after a World War I army division.
The name "U.S. 12" was shifted south to what once
was U.S. 112 between Detroit and Chicago. Some parts of Old
U.S. 12 outside of town, especially in Van Buren County and
Berrien County to the west, are still called Red Arrow Highway.
The term "Old U.S. 12" has faded from use. |
