METRO DETROIT, MI — Heads up, motorists: I-94 is closing down this weekend in Detroit.
The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) contract crews will be repairing pavement and bridges on I-94 in Detroit. This work will require closing eastbound I-94 from US-12 (Michigan Avenue) to I-75 starting at 6 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 21. Eastbound I-94 will have all lanes reopened from US-12 to I-75 by 5 a.m. Monday, Sept. 23.
During this closure, eastbound traffic will be detoured via eastbound US-12 to northbound Rosa Parks Boulevard, then northbound I-75 back to eastbound I-94. The closure is needed to safely allow crews to resurface eastbound I-94 from Wyoming Avenue to Second Avenue and continue structure repair on the railroad bridge located just east of Livernois Avenue.
