8/30/14 - Road improvements will necessitate some traffic restrictions on Seven Mile Road in Northfield Township this coming week. A chip seal surface will be applied on Seven Mile Road from Spencer Road to East Shore Drive on Wednesday, September 3rd and lane restrictions will be necessary to complete the road improvements. The Washtenaw County Road Commission says the work, while weather dependent, is expected to be completed the same day. Traffic delays are likely and motorists are being advised to seek an alternate route. Access will be maintained for adjoining property owners located within the construction zone. To ensure the safety of road crews, motorists are asked to be especially mindful of construction activities, including personnel and equipment, and reduce speeds accordingly. The road commission says pedestrians and bicyclists should keep clear of the area during the placement of the hot asphalt as burns are possible from any contact. (JM)
