The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) announced M-15 will be temporarily closed starting next month.
The road work will be the resurfacing of more than a mile of M-15 (Tuscola Road/Trumbull Street) from Young's Ditch Road/22nd Street north to M-25 (Center Avenue).
While the road work is being done, M-15 traffic will be detoured from Columbus Avenue to M-25 starting Saturday, Aug. 1, through Thursday, Aug. 13.
An additional closure will be in place on M-15 from Columbus Avenue to Youngs Ditch Road on Tuesday, Aug. 4, and Wednesday, Aug. 5.
The highway improvements total about $841,000.
While the work is being done, traffic will be detoured for both closures in each direction via Youngs Ditch Road and Pine Road.
Access to businesses will be maintained.
The work will extend the lifespan of the roadway and increase safety for motorists.
