Our resurfacing project on Dixboro Rd between Plymouth Rd and M-14 in Ann Arbor & Superior Townships is making great progress.
On June 17, the Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) closed the roadway to begin pulverizing the exiting road surface.

Currently, the contractor is working to pave the wearing course (top layer) of asphalt and expects to complete paving within the next few days, permitting weather conditions. Once paving is finished, the next step is placing aggregate (stone) shoulders and pavement markings.

The Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) has the green light to rehabilitate the bridge on Cherry Hill Road, over Fleming Creek, between Gale Road and Plymouth Road in Superior Township. The scope of work will include removal and replacement of the bridge beams, deck, and rail.
“Bridges provide a vital connection from communities to commerce,” says Nate Murphy, WCRC Senior Project Manager – Design and Construction. “With careful consideration during design and construction, the WCRC will rehabilitate this bridge crossing to provide a reliable and durable crossing of Fleming Creek.”
Based on funding availability, construction is currently scheduled for 2026. The WCRC is beginning the collection of data for the design phase of the project. The 44-year-old, two-lane Cherry Hill Road Bridge is weight-restricted due to structural deterioration, prompting the need for rehabilitation. Funding comes from the Local Bridge Program (Michigan Department of Transportation) and Michigan Transportation Funds (WCRC budget).
Residents and motorists may notice surveyors collecting data near the bridge. This design phase work is not expected to impact traffic.
During the 2026 construction, the bridge will be closed to all traffic with a posted detour. The WCRC will host a virtual public information meeting regarding this project in 2025.
The WCRC will alert the public with construction updates on the WCRC website, Facebook, and Twitter pages. Sign up for WCRC project updates: wcroads.org/residents/subscribe-to-road-updates/

Washtenaw County, Wednesday, June 5, 2024 – The Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) and the Washtenaw County Parks and Recreation Commission (WCPARC) invites the public to a hybrid informational session on Monday, June 24, 2024, at 11:30 a.m. to learn more about the renew and restore 0.5 mill four-year county-wide roads and non-motorized millage (Proposal A). WCRC encourages residents to join the conversation either in person or in a Zoom meeting.
- Event: Renew & Restore Roads & Non-motorized Millage Informational Session
- Date: Monday, June 24, 2024
- Time: 11:30 a.m.
- In-person: Washtenaw County Road Commission, 555 North Zeeb Road, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48103
- Zoom Link: https://bit.ly/wcrcprojectmeeting , or by phone: (929) 205-6099, Meeting ID: 879 2332 8754
Washtenaw County voters are being asked on the August 6, 2024, ballot to renew and restore the 0.5 mill four-year county-wide roads and non-motorized millage (Washtenaw County Proposal A). This is not a new tax for voters. If renewed and restored, the 0.5 mill is expected to generate approximately $10.9 million per year for roads and non-motorized pathway projects. WCRC would receive approximately $4.9 million per year for road work in 20 townships, Cities would receive approximately $3.8 million per year, with specific allocations based on the amount raised within cities borders, and WCPARC would receive approximately $2.2 million per year to support the expansion of the county non-motorized path network through the Border-to-Border Trail Project (B2B Trail) and the Connecting Communities Grant Program.
“Since its inception a decade ago, the county-wide roads and non-motorized millage has consistently delivered on its promise to improve the roadways, bridges, and non-motorized pathways in Washtenaw County,” said Matthew MacDonell, Managing Director of Washtenaw County Road Commission. “Through strategic investments and careful planning, we have witnessed significant progress in addressing the condition of our critical infrastructure.”
“The Roads and Non-motorized Millage is a testament to the power of collective action and community investment. As we look towards the future, we are confident that our continued partnership with WCRC, Township, and City leaders and residents will enable us to build upon past successes and pave the way for a brighter, more resilient tomorrow,” said Coy Vaughn, Director of Washtenaw County Parks & Recreation Commission.
More than 70% of county voters approved of the four-year, 0.5 mill roads and non-motorized millages in 2016 and 2020. With widespread support from our residents, the proposed Roads and Non-motorized Millage has consistently demonstrated its effectiveness in addressing the needs of our community.
“ The Roads and Non-motorized Millage have been a vital lifeline for our community, providing the necessary resources to improve our road infrastructure and non-motorized pathways, says Chuck Tellas, Supervisor for York Township. Our Township remains committed to working collaboratively with WCRC and WCPARC to ensure that our roads and non-motorized facilities remain safe, accessible, and well-maintained for the future.”

The Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) is announcing plans to invest $6.7 million to improve approximately 20 lane miles of pavement throughout Washtenaw County during the 2024 construction season. Cadillac Asphalt was awarded the contract. The projects are funded through the 2021-2024 Four-year County-wide Roads and Non-Motorized Millage, federal funds and Michigan Transportation Funds (MTF).
“Most of these investments are made possible by Washtenaw County residents who travel on these roads every day. As stewards of these precious dollars, WCRC is committed to ensuring these resources are reinvested into communities, in which it came from,” said Mike Bernbeck, WCRC Project Manager.
Construction will begin mid-April and will end during the fall of 2024, weather pending. Listed below are the project locations with a link to their project web page, funding cost and traffic impacts:
Motorists will experience road closures with detours, lane restrictions, and flagging operations. WCRC will maintain access for residents who live or work within the project limits during construction.
