8/7/14 - A big weekend of asphalt paving is planned for those traveling on Grand River through the Brighton and Howell areas. The Livingston County Road Commission has been doing lots of rehabilitation work along a stretch of Grand River from roughly Hughes Road to just past Hacker Road. The two-mile resurfacing project has had traffic down to one lane in either direction of Grand River since early June. Crews have been milling asphalt on the north side this week and will be making any needed repairs to the base on the edge of the road before paving it back over. Road Commission Managing Director Mike Craine tells WHMI that will involve a lot of trucks and equipment because multiple lanes are paved at a time so caution will be required. After the final paving work wraps up, Craine says theyâll do some painting and re-seed any turf that was disturbed. Although the work is scheduled for completion August 15th, motorists are reminded thereâs still another phase to go that will begin after Labor Day. Crews will pick up where they left off and start the same work along Grand River, from just east of Hacker Road down to the I-96 interchange. (JM)
