Another local road construction project is starting next week. Griswold Road between Allen Road and the I-69 business loop is scheduled for an upgrade beginning June 13th and lasting about two weeks.
Griswold Road’s existing asphalt will be milled and resurfaced. There will also be the placing of aggregate road shoulders, along with new pavement markings and reconstruction of the railroad crossing.
The portion of road between Michigan Road and 32nd Street will be completely closed to traffic for approximately one week. Detours will be posted. There will be daytime lane closures between Allen and Michigan Roads.
The project has an estimated total construction cost of nearly $398,000 and is paid for by the Federal Highway Administration and the St. Clair County Road Commission. The main contractor is Ace-Saginaw Paving Company.
The Road Commission asks that drivers cooperate in keeping access open for local residents and emergency vehicles on Griswold Road and that drivers exercise patience in the construction zone.
