I 275 update: South Huron River Drive closure, US 12 (Michigan Avenue) ramp and I 96/M 14 ramp closures

ROMULUS, Mich. ­- As the I-275 project continues toward completion by late summer, there are multiple locations where work is still needed.

Beginning Monday, July 8, South Huron River Drive will be closed at I-275 for approximately three weeks for culvert work. Traffic will be detoured via West Huron River Drive and Northline Road.

Also beginning Monday, July 8, the eastbound US-12 (Michigan Avenue) ramp to southbound I-275 will be closed for approximately three weeks for drainage work. The detour is to go further east to the crossover for the westbound US-12 (Michigan Avenue) ramp to southbound I-275.

Currently, crews plan to close the northbound I-275 ramp to eastbound I-96 over the weekend of July 12-14 for bridge epoxy overlay. The date is subject to change and the work is weather dependent.

The Revive275 project is a $281 million investment that has directly and indirectly supported 3,267 jobs. Project information can be found on the project consultant's website at Revive275.org.

Funding for this project is made possible by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's Rebuilding Michigan program to rebuild the state highways and bridges that are critical to the state's economy and carry the most traffic. The investment strategy is aimed at fixes that result in longer useful lives and improve the condition of the state's infrastructure.
