Bridge work to create more traffic headaches
DETROIT — Expect more traffic pains on the U.S. side of the Ambassador Bridge until at least the fall.
The big Ambassador Bridge Gateway Project, which has I-75 already closed through to December 2009 for upgrades, will now enter a new phase, reports the Detroit Free Press.
Starting in mid-July, workers are set to begin rebuilding a 1-mile stretch of I-96 between I-75 and I-94 in Detroit. That project, which shuts down a mile of I-96 and part of I-75 between Warren Avenue and Rosa Parks Boulevaris, is expected to continue until mid-October.
Eastbound I-96 traffic will be forced off at either Warren Avenue or onto a left-lane exit ramp designated for traffic bound for Mexicantown or the bridge.
