VAN BUREN TOWNSHIP, Mich. - The ongoing rebuild of I-275 in Wayne County will require crews to close additional ramps along the corridor after the Labor Day holiday weekend.
Starting at 6 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 6, crews will close the westbound I-94 ramp to southbound I-275. During the ramp closure, ramp traffic will be directed to continue west on I-94 to Haggerty Road, then eastbound I-94 to southbound I-275. The ramp is expected to reopen in mid-September.
At the same time, crews will close the southbound I-275 exit to Ann Arbor Road. Ramp traffic will be directed to continue south to M-153 (Ford Road), then northbound I-275 to Ann Arbor Road. The ramp is expected to reopen in early October.
Starting at 6 a.m. on Monday, Sept. 12, the eastbound Ann Arbor Road entrance ramp to southbound I-275 will close. Ramp traffic will use northbound I-275, then Six Mile Road to southbound I-275. The ramp is expected to reopen in early October.
Funding for this project is made possible by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s Rebuilding Michigan program to rebuild state highways and bridges that are critical to the state’s economy and carry the most traffic. The investment strategy is aimed at fixes that result in longer useful lives and improves the condition of the state’s infrastructure.
Based on economic modeling, the Revive I-275 project and its $270 million investment is expected to directly and indirectly support 3,429 jobs. Project information can be found at Revive275.org.
