Work also includes improving and rebuilding bridges through this segment, as well as upgrading drainage, signs, and pavement markings. Sign up for US-127 construction updates to stay up to date on lane closures and other project news. 

2024 - Northbound US-127

Northbound lanes were reconstructed during 2024, improving access to Dunckel Rd, Trowbridge Rd, and I-496. These repairs will contribute to smoother vehicular travel and increased overpass safety and are now reopened.

2025 - Southbound US-127

Southbound traffic will be shifted to the new northbound lanes with two lanes open in each direction in some areas.

Check Mi Drive for current lane closure information.
