TRAFFIC RESTRICTIONS: Detours will be posted during construction. Traffic will use US-41 when the Glazon Creek culvert is replaced, and M-26 when the Aetna Creek culvert is replaced.
CUSTOMER BENEFIT: This project will replace multiple metal culverts at each location with single concrete box culverts, which will improve drainage and extend the roadway life.
