        I-275 project enters winter stage with new configuration in Wayne County

 

PLYMOUTH, Mich. ­- The Revive 275 rebuilding project in Wayne County has reached a new stage with two lanes open in each direction on I-275 between Eureka and 6 Mile roads. All traffic is maintained on the newly rebuilt southbound lanes, with two-way traffic separated by temporary concrete barriers. Off-peak intermittent lane and ramp closures can be expected over the next week.  

 

This new configuration is a significant step and will allow crews to focus on rebuilding the northbound lanes throughout 2023. During the winter months, ramp access at all interchanges to northbound and southbound I-275 will be maintained. Based on economic modeling, the Revive 275 project and its $270 million investment is expected to directly and indirectly support 3,429 jobs. Project information can be found at Revive275.org.
