Interstate 675 (abbreviated I-675) is an interstate highway in the U.S. state of Michigan. I-675 is a 7.73-mile loop route through downtown Saginaw as Interstate 75 passes on the east side of the city.
One additional reason for I-675's existence, besides improved access to downtown Saginaw, was to serve as a bypass of the former drawbridge carrying I-75 across the Saginaw River in the nearby city of Zilwaukee, until the Zilwaukee Bridge opened in 1988.
The Zilwaukee Bridge is slated to close for two years beginning in 2011 for resurfacing [1], which may tax the limits of the small freeway.
