2025 Construction Season Begins

Construction begins this week on some of the city's 2025 infrastructure projects scheduled for this year. The renewed road millage funding will focus on major roads first, but the city's other infrastructure projects will continue in residential neighborhoods as well.

The city realizes construction will be an inconvenience and all efforts to expedite the work will be utilized to minimize traffic conflicts and access to various properties abutting the project.

Notices of Construction are mailed to affected residents and copies are available online here.

CAP2509 13 Mile Road Resurfacing

13 Mile Road from Woodward Avenue to Crooks Road

The contractor has shifted traffic to the inside lanes of the roadway. The contractor will continue working on the south side of the roadway working west to east removing some curbing and driveways that will be replaced as part of the project. Once removals are complete, new concrete will be placed and the crews will switch to the north side of the roadway.

Traffic Changes:  13 Mile Road will have one lane open in each direction throughout construction. To decrease traffic backups, left turns will be prohibited along the corridor and at the major intersections of Coolidge Highway, Benjamin Avenue, Durham Road (eastbound only), and Crooks Road (eastbound only). Access to businesses will be maintained during construction.

This work is scheduled to be completed by the end of July, in advance of Dream Cruise weekend.

CAP2514 Downtown Resurfacing

The city will be resurfacing Williams Street from E Seventh to E Third and W Sixth Street from S Washington to S Center this Spring. The contractor will also be installing ADA parking spaces and ramps on W Second Street adjacent to the post office.

Parking meters have been temporarily removed or bagged, and the contractor has begun work on Sixth Street and Williams Street where new drainage structures are being installed in advance of the roadwork. The roads will be closed to traffic while crews are working during the day.

Once the drainage structures are installed crews will begin on concrete work, replacing some curbing and deficient concrete on Sixth, Second and Williams.
