This meeting will discuss the future of the intersection of Northland Drive (Old US-131) and 8 Mile Road near Stanwood. According to MDOT, options such as a four-way stop and a roundabout have been discussed as potential options.

It will take place at Mecosta Township Hall on 11 Mile Road from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.

Since the beginning of 2026, there have been at least three crashes at the intersection that have led to at least one person being taken to the hospital.
