The northbound US-31 ramps to M-104 and 3rd Street will remain open. Eastbound M-104 traffic will be shifted over to the westbound lanes between US-31 and Rex/School Street.
The pedestrian trails from US-31 to M-104 will be closed Sept. 6 through Nov. 1. Intermittent trail closures will be in effect through mid-December. Signs will be provided to notify users when trails are closed. MDOT is coordinating with the local Harbor Transit to provide free rides around the closed pathway for pedestrians.
SAFETY BENEFITS: Long-term benefits include improvements to safety and operations, as well as extending the service lives of the roadway and bridges.
