12/5/13 - Massive improvements on a well-traveled corridor in Livingston and Washtenaw Counties will be detailed during a public information meeting next week. The Michigan Department of Transportation is hosting the public meeting regarding proposed improvements to US-23 and M-14, north of Ann Arbor that are estimated at over $60 (m) million in the preliminary phase. Upgrades would include pavement repairs, bridge replacement and ramp improvements according to Spokeswoman Kari Arend. She says M-DOT is also looking at installing a new type of system that would help manage congestion along the corridor. Arend says theyâre calling it an active traffic management system, which has been used successfully in other states but never Michigan. Interested residents, businesses and commuters are encouraged to attend the meeting next Thursday at the Northfield Township Hall on Main Street. There will be formal presentations made at both 4pm and 6pm but the remainder of the meeting will be in open house-style format. More information and proposed project plans can be found in the attachments below. (JM)
