M-59 RECONSTRUCTION PROJECT UPDATE FROM MDOT:
We have switched traffic to the median on westbound M-59 which means that we are now in full reconstruction of permanent pavement. Despite the large amount of rain last week, we continued our construction and you will continue to see progress each and every day. Later this week, we plan to reopen Woodridge and close Eastbrook the same day. We will finish the first half of construction of Delco and move traffic to the new pavement while we construct the second half of Delco. The full closure of Canterbury is now scheduled for the end of the week.
We have also added a new feature to our website. On the main page, there is now a link which will show you the average travel time on both weekdays and weekends. We are hoping that you find this tool useful and help you plan your trips a little better. Additionally, our travel times are back up and running and you can once again see how long it takes to make it through the work zone.
One final note, we have had some further discussions with our contractor and after reviewing the number of concerns raised by a many of our stakeholders, we will provide access to all businesses for the Mother's Day weekend. While this was not an easy decision, we truly do appreciate your patience with us while we work through the construction.
Please check our website and social media pages for updates!
