May 18, 2023 Project Update: Construction Is Going Well!

Construction is going well on the Textile Rd resurfacing project in Pittsfield & Ypsilanti Townships.   

Last week our contractor completed paving two phases of Textile Rd between Whittaker Rd and Huron River Dr, as well as between Bridge Rd and Rawsonville Rd. The contractor also placed aggregate shoulders, pavement markings and removed temporary traffic control devices.  

The Textile Rd resurfacing project will pause until further notice to coordinate with permitted work in the area and to accommodate traffic impacts (see project phase image below). The Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) will continue to send updates as the project progresses.

However, this order of construction is subject to change based on weather conditions, contractor scheduling and permitted work in the area.
