В Мидленде введены временные объезды из-за ускоренных дорожных работ на пересечении US-10 и Вашингтон-стрит

MIDLAND, Mich. (WJRT) - MDOT will implement temporary detours to accommodate road work at the eastbound U.S. 10 Business Route/Washington Street intersection in Midland. The closure is part of a $27 million investment to improve M-20 and US-10 Business Route in Midland. Phase one is expected to be completed by Nov. 15, and work on phase two will continue in 2027. The intersection work was originally scheduled to be completed in 2027 as part of phase two. However, the work is being done now to improve safety for workers and drivers and to reduce project costs and overall project impacts on motorists. The detours will be in place starting Sept. 14 and will run through Nov. 15. Eastbound U.S. 10 Business Route will be closed and detoured via eastbound James Savage Road to Saginaw Road, while westbound U.S. 10 Business Route will be closed at Jefferson Avenue and detoured via southbound Jefferson Avenue to the Buttles/Lyon Street two-way roadway. Northbound Washington Street will be closed and detoured via Discovery Way to Saginaw Road. Southbound Washington Street traffic will be detoured via westbound US-10 Business Route, southbound Jefferson Avenue, eastbound U.S. 10 Business Route and eastbound James Savage Road. Currently, Indian Street and westbound US-10 Business Route are closed for rebuilding. Buttles Street and eastbound US-10 Business Route have been converted to accommodate two-way traffic. At the end of the 2026 construction season, eastbound and westbound US-10 Business Route will return to the normal one-way configuration. When work resumes in 2027 and eastbound US-10 Business Route and Buttles Street are rebuilt, two-way traffic will be diverted to Indian Street and westbound US-10 Business Route.
