During the week of June 16, Cadillac Asphalt—the contractor for the Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC)—milled and resurfaced the asphalt on Liberty Road between Zeeb Road and Wagner Road in Scio Township. In addition, crews resurfaced seven county road approaches along this stretch of road.
In the coming weeks, crews will return to this section of Liberty Road to place gravel on the road shoulders and install permanent lane markings, depending on the contractor’s availability.
Later this summer, the contractor is scheduled to resurface the stretch of Liberty Road between Wagner Road and Scio Ridge Road, marking the completion of the project.
This work is funded by the Four-Year Roads and Non-Motorized Millage approved by voters last fall.
WCRC will continue to send updates as the project progresses. If you have questions contact Felix Weber, Project Manager – Design & Construction, (734) 327-6689, or via email at [email protected].
