8/10/13 - The Michigan Department of Transportation has revised the schedule for overnight closures that start Monday on I-96 as part of the Latson Road interchange project. Over the next two weeks, there will be a full, overnight closure on I-96 at Latson Road Monday through Thursday each week so crews can set beams for the new bridge. When the freeway is closed, traffic will be re-routed off and on the freeway using the new ramps at the Latson Road interchange. Next week, eastbound I-96 will be closed each night starting Monday, August 12th through Thursday, August 15th between 10pm and 4am. Prior to the full closure each night, there also will be a double lane closure on eastbound I-96 starting at 7pm. Then the following week, westbound I-96 will be closed each night starting Monday, August 19th until Thursday, August 22nd between 11pm and 5am. Prior to the full closure each night, there also will be a double lane closure on westbound I-96 starting at 8pm. M-DOT advises motorists to watch for slow traffic and to also plan extra time when traveling through the corridor during the work. (JM)
