Labor Day Weekend: Construction suspended

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)
It has become standard procedure in Michigan to suspend most construction projects on holidays weekends to allow for easier travel.

The big advantages are that lane closures caused by the presence of crews and operation of equipment are eliminated and the speed limit through existing construction zones is 60 mph instead of 45 mph when crews are present.

Here are some weekend notes, plus a look ahead to next week:



II-96 logo small.jpg-96: Resurfacing is complete between M-104 and 68TH AVE/COOPERSVILLE. Ahead of schedule, no less.






M-66:
Pavement M-66.jpgwill be resurfaced from Ionia north to Sheridan through October 16. Flag crews will control traffic.






 Night time resurfacing will resume on I-196 between 32ND AVE/HUDSONVILLE and the 64TH AVE bridge, through Thursday night (9/11).
