LANSING, Mich. — Early Monday morning, Gov. Gretchen Whitmer announced that the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will begin multiple new road construction projects, including two located in mid-Michigan.
The first project is set to begin Monday in Clinton County. MDOT will be repairing I-96 between Clintonia Road and Wacousta Road. The repairs include removal and replacement of concrete pavement and the installation of a median cable barrier. The estimated cost of the project is $9.6 million.
The project is estimated to be completed around Sept. 20, 2023. For the duration of the project, motorists should expect single-lane closures during the day.
The second project, also beginning Monday, is the US-127 resurfacing and bridge repair in Ingham County. MDOT will be resurfacing 12.5 miles of pavement, repairing 10 structures, improving drainage along the roadway and installing guardrails and barrier walls.
This is part of a multiple-phase project to rebuild US-127 and is estimated to cost approximately $62 million.
