US-127 stage change begins Friday in Ingham County

LANSING, Mich. - The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will start striping lanes and removing barrier walls to prepare opening the newly rebuilt northbound lanes of US-127 from I-96 to Dunckel Road, including all ramps in the US-127/I-96 interchange.

This work is part of the $205 million investment to rebuild US-127/I-496 from I-96 to I-496 that will address safety concerns, improve roadway geometrics and improve vehicular movement. In addition, this work is expected to improve and rebuild bridges through this segment and update drainage, signs, and pavement markings in Ingham County.
