Westbound I-69 lane closures for final pavement markings in Flint Nov. 2-3
November 01, 2022
DAVISON, Mich. - The Michigan Department of Transportation will complete final pavement markings on westbound I-69 from Fenton Road to M-54. This work is part of a $100 million investment to rebuild more than 2 miles of I-69, along with various work at the I-69/I-475 interchange.

Gretchen Whitmer's Rebuilding Michigan program to rebuild the 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.
