July 10, 2023 Lane Restrictions: Main St Bridge (City of Dexter)

WHEN: Monday, July 17, 2023

WHERE: Main St bridge, over Mill Creek, between Dexter-Chelsea Rd and Jeffords St in the City of Dexter

WHY: Bridge preventative maintenance

BACKGROUND: During the week of July 17, the Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) will perform an epoxy overlay on the Main St bridge deck, over Mill Creek, between Dexter-Chelsea Rd and Jeffords St in the City of Dexter.

The road will not be closed to traffic, but delays are likely due to lane restrictions and a traffic pattern shift. WCRC encourages motorists, emergency services and others to use an alternate route.

Pedestrians can expect sidewalk restrictions during the bridge work. All dates are tentative and subject to change due to weather conditions.
