M-90 traffic will be maintained with a temporary signal. A two-week closure for railroad crossing work is expected to begin Aug. 19; traffic will be detoured via Croswell Road, Sanborn Street, and Howard Avenue.

 

SAFETY BENEFITS:
This work will improve drainage, extend the life of the roadway, and improve the driving surface of the railroad crossing.
