| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

Here is what to expect this week:


East Grand Rapids logo.jpgLAKE DR, EAST GRAND RAPIDS: A favorite shortcut is will be shut down for some time. LAKE DR will be closed Monday (8/3) between the East Grand Rapids city limit just east of WEALTHY ST and LOVETT AVE, which is east of PLYMOUTH AVE. Construction will continue into October. PLYMOUTH AVE will remain open through the LAKE DR intersection until construction progress requires closure.

Detour: The City of East Grand Rapids has not issued an official recommended detour. If you just want to get into East Grand Rapids, use WEALTHY ST east to LAKESIDE DR. If you, like most people, want to cut through EGR to get to BRETON RD and head south, use FULLER AVE south to HALL ST, then east on HALL ST to BRETON RD.



I-96 logo small.jpgI-96: Resurfacing of the highway between 68TH AVE and M-104 will run from  Monday (8/3) through September 14. Don't let the sight of barrels on the shoulder cause you concern: all lane closures are scheduled for 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. If you sleep normal hours, the only inconvenience should be slower traffic if you stay late at the beach in Grand Haven.




I-196: The left lane will be closed on EASTBOUND I-196 over BYRON RD/Zeeland Exit from 9 a.m. Monday (8/3) until about 2 p.m. Wednesday (8/5). Expect backups at high-volume times.

I-196: Lane reductions will be in place overnight 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. between 68TH AVE and KENOWA AVE from August 4 to August 10.



US-131 logo 75x60.jpgUS-131: NORTHBOUND will be reduced to one lane from the Martin Exit to the 120TH AVE bridge, but only through Thursday (8/6).


10 MILE:
Pavement on the bridge over US-131 will be reduced by at least one lane from August 6 through September 29.

All projects depend on the weather.
