WARREN (AP) — The state says a much-anticipated freeway reconstruction project in the Detroit area will close westbound lanes of I-696 starting April 27.
The state Department of Transportation on Friday announced the date for the shutdown between I-94 and I-75 as the roadway is rebuilt. Eastbound traffic will have access to I-696, but lanes will be shifted. Work is expected to wrap up in November.
MDOT is spending $90 million on the “Restore the Reuther” project in Macomb and Oakland counties.
I-696 is used by tens of thousands of motorists daily.
