 M-85 (Fort Street) work closing lanes between Vreeland and West roads in Wayne County for railroad crossing rebuilding

 

TRENTON, Mich. ­- Beginning Monday, April 1, northbound and southbound M-85 (Fort Street) will have shoulder and lane closures between Vreeland and West roads in Trenton, Wayne County, for railroad crossing work. This project is expected to be completed in July. 

Work involves removing and replacing both railroad crossings and rebuilding the roadway approaches to the crossings. Initial work will include removing trees in the median and building a temporary crossover to maintain M-85 (Fort Street) traffic for upcoming closures at the railroad crossings. 

There will always be one lane open in both directions. Local resident and business access will be maintained.
