8/28/14 - The second stage of construction on Grand River in the Brighton area will commence next month. Road improvements being made from Hacker Road east towards Hilton Road in Brighton are scheduled to begin September 8th. The roadwork will begin near OâConnorâs Deli and move east towards Brighton, ending near Hilton Road. Livingston County Road Commission Manager Mike Craine tells WHMI the work scheduled to be done near the on and off-ramps for I-96 will be done during non-peak hours. Because of traffic volume in that area, construction will mainly take place between 9pm and 6am. The improvements near Hacker Road will include reconstructing storm drains as well as new pipes and catch basins. The recently completed project further east down Grand River was a learning experience for the Road Commission. Craine tells WHMI a few things will be modified this time around to better the process. There have been 3 bids for the Hacker to Hilton Road project, with the low bid coming in at just under $1.4 million. Should all phases go according to plan, the Road Commission hopes to complete the project by November 15th. (DK)
