(WWJ) Drivers in southern Macomb County will want to take note of this traffic alert:
Beginning today (Wednesday, July 14) 12 Mile Rd. is completely closed both eastbound and westbound at Gratiot Ave. (M-3) in Roseville.
The intersection is expected to remain closed for two weeks, through late July, according to the Michigan Department of Transportation. Only local traffic will be allowed on 12 Mile Rd. between M-97, Groesbeck Highway, and I-94.
During the closure, crews will be replacing the water main, sewers and pavement at the intersection.
MDOT says the project will result in a smoother driving surface on Gratiot. New sewer systems will also improve drainage throughout the corridor. Both of these improvements will result in better ride quality and increased safety for motorists and pedestrians.
