PROJECT:
The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will invest $370,000 to install a new traffic signal at the intersection of US-131 and M-75 near Walloon Lake. This project includes new concrete curb and gutter, sidewalk connections with ramps meeting Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, and pavement markings.
This work follows a 2020 project to install a high-friction surface on the southbound lanes of US-31 north of the north M-75 intersection, and on the northbound lanes of US-31 both north and south of the intersection.

TRAFFIC RESTRICTIONS:
This work will require single-lane closures with traffic regulators and traffic shifts.
SAFETY BENEFITS:
This signal will help regulate traffic through this busy intersection and should help reduce some conflicts between US-131 and cross-traffic.
