ROSEVILLE (WWJ) - Police are warning speeding drivers in I-696 construction zones: We're coming for you. 

Roseville police will be increasing patrols this weekend along I-696 and officers will be ticketing drivers who don't slow down. And remember, traffic violations are doubled in construction zones so you don't want to be caught speeding. 

The Michigan Department of Transportation is closing several lanes on I-696 in Macomb County starting Friday night and running through the weekend.  

Consider yourself warned.
