The I-94 modernization project will rebuild 7 miles of interstate in segments from just east of Conner Avenue to just east of the I-96 interchange in Detroit.

As MDOT begins Package 1 of the I-94 modernization project, there will be more opportunities for public input through community meetings and the I-94 Neighborhood Advisory Committee.
In addition to bringing this stretch of I-94 up to modern design standards, work includes:
To reduce impacts on surrounding neighborhoods, the current design uses the existing street networks instead of building continuous service drives to improve local circulation while building retaining walls to fit expansions into the current freeway footprint.
Starting in 2013, MDOT committed to replacing overpasses above I-94 ahead of rebuilding the interstate to maintain local community connections.
The advanced bridges were selected based on structural condition at the time and mobility options for neighborhoods. Most of these overpasses were built in the 1950s and have never been rebuilt.
The I-94 modernization project Small Business Enterprise (SBE) Training Program is designed to maximize small business participation in the areas of design and construction, engineering, and inspection (CEI) on the project.
This initiative is part of MDOT's Small Business Program to provide small businesses the opportunity to gain necessary experience to sustain and obtain MDOT service prequalification.
