View looking south along
US 131 from the 68th St. overpass at Exit 76. The southbound C/D lane
from the M-6 interchange continues up to the spot where the entrance
ramp from 68th St. merges in with the C/D lane. At that point, the
concrete barrier between the mainline and C/D lanes ends, and the C/D
lane blends back in with the three mainline US 131 South lanes to form a
fourth lane for the 76th St. exit. |

BUS US 131 right exit (Exit 84 B) on US 131 North. The Wealthy St. exit
is a full interchange, but the BUS US 131 exit is only a partial

access between US 131 North and Wealthy St. is via a left exit and left
