M-5 (Grand River Avenue) project between M-102 (8 Mile Road) and Berg Road in Detroit begins this week

April 16, 2024

DETROIT, Mich. – The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will begin work this week on M-5 (Grand River Avenue) between M-102 (8 Mile Road) and Berg Road, east of US-24 (Telegraph Road). This $5.8 million investment includes milling, joint repairs and asphalt paving, and is expected to be completed by late fall.

Beginning 8 a.m. Thursday, April 18, the two left lanes will be closed in each direction on M-5 (Grand River Avenue) between M-102 (8 Mile Road) and Berg Road for median work. While there will be two lanes open during most of the work, there will be occasional periods of up to three lanes closed during paving operations. This stage of work should be completed by June and will then shift into the two right lanes, which will be closed until late fall.

Based on economic modeling, this investment is expected to directly and indirectly support 70 jobs.
