9/12/13 - Traffic issues and delays can be expected this weekend on some sections of I-96 and M-59. MDOT crews will be paving M-59, east of old US-23 this weekend and one lane of traffic will be maintained with flag control between 7am and 9pm each day. On Saturday, crews will be working on M-59 between Argentine Road and Hacker Road. Then on Sunday, crews will be working on the stretch of M-59 between Latson Road and Argentine Road. M-DOT says that entire project is expected to wrap up in early October. Meanwhile, lane closures will also be in effect along I-96 this weekend. In Oakland County, westbound I-96 will have two lanes closed nightly from Novi Road to Kent Lake Road. That starts at 8pm Thursday and will last until 5am. Those two lanes will again be closed overnight on Friday and Saturday for resurfacing work from 10pm until 6am. Then on Sunday in Livingston County, M-DOT says there will be a single lane closure on westbound I-96 approximately two miles west of M-59. That closure is needed to install pavement sensors and will be in place between 7am and 11am. (JM)
