Daytime Road Closure: Congress St (Ypsilanti Twp)

WHEN: Starting on Monday, June 13, 2022

WHERE: Congress St between Hewitt Rd and Mansfield Ave in Ypsilanti Township

WHY: Preventative maintenance – chip seal

BACKGROUND: Starting on Monday, June 13, 2022, the Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) will close Congress St between Hewitt Rd and Mansfield Ave in Ypsilanti Township for a preventative maintenance chip seal project.

Access will be provided to emergency services, school buses and residents who live, work or own property within the work zone. The road will reopen at the end of each day and remain open until work resumes the following morning.

The work on this road is expected to be completed within approximately two days. However, all dates are tentative and subject to change due to weather conditions.

Drivers are advised to lower their speeds to 35 mph while the stone settles.

WCRC will return to this area in a few weeks to apply a fog seal on top of the chip seal and place permanent pavement markings.

CONTACT: If you have any questions, please contact Ken Harris, superintendent of maintenance, (734) 327-6696 or via email at [email protected].
