Officials at the Michigan Department of Transportation announced an investment of $6.6 million to rebuild approximately 6.5 miles of US-131 from 13 Mile Road to just north of 19 Mile Road.    

 

That investment is expected to directly and indirectly support 84 jobs.

 

Work includes resurfacing, drainage improvements and new guardrail. 

 

The project will begin July 11th and last until late September. 

 

Officials say there will be Lane closures and intermittent ramp closures  in effect throughout the project.
