BUS US 24 is a business route running in Pontiac. It was designated in 1986 as a business route of US 24.
Previous to the 1986 truncation of US 10 to Bay City, it was BUS US 10. BUS US 24 was first a business route of US 10 in 1961 when US 10 was relocated out of downtown Pontiac. In 1970, when US 10 was transferred off Woodward Avenue to the Lodge Freeway, the section of Square Lake Rd. that carried US 10 was transferred to BUS US 10 so that the business route would remain a complete loop back to US 10.
