MORENCI — Road improvement work will begin in Morenci on Tuesday, August 5th, and is expected to be completed by the end of the month.
The project is partially funded by the Michigan Department of Transportation Community Service
Infrastructure Fund grant, which will cover nearly $114,000 of the total $250,760 cost.
Work includes mill and overlay resurfacing, ADA-compliant crosswalk upgrades, and the addition of a new crosswalk at Mill and West Main Street.
Streets scheduled for repair include: Page Street, North Summit Street from Coomer to Greeley, Sims Highway from Main to West Coomer, and West Coomer Street, in front of the EMS building.
Drivers should expect temporary lane closures and detours during construction.
