(WWJ) -- A major road closure in Macomb County begins today while crews start repair work on a railroad crossing.
Westbound Hall Road (M-59) is scheduled to be closed between Gratiot Ave and Groesbeck Hwy beginning at 7 a.m. Monday morning.
The detour has motorists going north on Gratiot, then west on 21 Mile Road, south on North Avenue, then back onto Hall Road.
The closure will last for one week in each direction.
Westbound M-59 will close at 7 a.m. on Monday, Oct. 4, and is expected to reopen at 5 p.m. Monday, Oct. 11. The posted detour will be Northbound M-3, westbound 21 Mile Road, and southbound North Avenue back to westbound M-59.
