MT. PLEASANT, Mich. -The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) has secured new replacement beams for the M-30 bridge over US-10 in Sanford. MDOT will close US-10 nightly Aug. 5 and 6 to allow crews to safely set the new beams.
Bridge beams that were set in May showed signs of cracking. Out of an abundance of caution, crews promptly removed the beams and replacements were obtained.

M-30 will remain closed over US-10 as a part of a $7.3 million project to improve the structure. Southbound M-30 traffic is currently detoured via westbound US-10, southbound W. River Road and eastbound US-10 back to southbound M-30. Northbound traffic is detoured via eastbound US-10, northbound Stark Road and westbound US-10 back to northbound M-30.
