M-43 (Saginaw Street), Bridge Reconstruction over the Grand River

Start: March 2012      End: September 2012
What we are doing: 

MDOT will be reconstructing the M-43 (Saginaw Street) bridge over the Grand River.

  • Work includes changing the five-lane roadway to four lanes between Washington Avenue and North Cedar Street, widening sidewalks on both sides of the street from 5 feet to 8 feet.
  • The City of Lansing's River Trail will be widened from 7 feet to 10 feet, headroom will be improved
    under the bridge, and the path will be raised above the Grand River to minimize closures due to flooding.

How traffic is affected: 

Saginaw Street will be closed with all traffic detoured.

  • Eastbound M-43 traffic will be detoured up Grand Avenue across Oakland Avenue and then south on Center Street.
  • Oakland Avenue will temporarily be converted to a two-way street between Grand Avenue and Center Street to accommodate the detour route.
