Starting in early spring of 2007, MDOT will oversee improvements along the M-59 corridor. The project involves:

• widening M-59 to a four-lane boulevard
• ramp improvements at the M-59/I-96 interchange
• road resurfacing
• drainage improvements, traffic signal upgrades and curb and gutter repairs.

The project also involves total replacement of three bridges on M-59:

• over the CSX Railroad,
• over the Shiawassee River
• over the Great Lakes Central (GLC) Railroad. 

An enhancement grant will allow for a new nonmotorized path and wooden boardwalk to be built along the corridor.
