I-69 work resumes in Genesee County
COUNTY:
Genesee
HIGHWAY:
I-69
CLOSEST CITY:
Flint
START DATE:
Wednesday, April 8, 2015
(If no spring weight restrictions)
END DATE:
November 2015
PROJECT DETAILS:
The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will continue road work on I-69 between M-54 (Dort Highway) and Center Road. Work is tentatively scheduled to begin Wednesday, April 8, but is dependent on spring weight restrictions being lifted so that materials can be removed from the site.
Work includes widening the bridges at Averill Avenue, Center Road, and the CSX Railroad. Also, freeway lighting will be replaced between I-475 and Center Road, and modern traffic signals will be installed at the interchanges with M-54 and Center Road.
Last year, crews made pavement repairs between M-15 and Center Road, and constructed temporary crossovers and widened shoulders in preparation for this year's reconstruction.
TRAFFIC IMPACT:
After spring weight restrictions are lifted, all I-69 traffic will be shifted to the eastbound lanes. During this traffic shift, the following detours will be in effect:
Northbound M-54 (Dort Highway) to I-69:
- Eastbound I-69 detour: eastbound Lapeer Road to northbound Center Road, then eastbound I-69.
- Westbound I-69 detour: northbound M-54 (Dort Highway) to westbound Robert T. Longway Boulevard, then southbound I-475 to westbound I-69.
Southbound M-54 (Dort Highway) to eastbound I-69:
- Eastbound Lapeer Road to northbound Center Road, then eastbound I-69.
Northbound Center Road to westbound I-69:
- Westbound Court Street to southbound M-54 (Dort Highway), then westbound I-69.
Southbound Center Road to eastbound I-69:
- Eastbound Court Street to southbound Belsay Road, then eastbound I-69.
Southbound Center Road to westbound I-69:
- Westbound Court Street to southbound M-54 (Dort Highway), then westbound I-69.
Westbound I-69 to M-54 (Dort Highway):
- Northbound Center Road to westbound Court Street, then M-54 (Dort Highway).
