KALAMAZOO, MI (WKZO AM/FM) — As part of a major road project on I-94 in Kalamazoo that got underway recently, M-DOT says another phase begins this weekend.
Construction crews are working to widen I-94 from four to six lanes from Lovers Lane to Sprinkle Road. To accommodate rebuilding the eastbound lanes in the area, eastbound traffic will be shifted onto westbound I-94 beginning Saturday evening at 9:00 p.m. until 8:00 a.m. Sunday, weather permitting.
The project involves expanding a nearly three-mile stretch of the freeway and reconstructing the Portage Rd. interchange, among other things, as part of the $87 million project. The project also includes rebuilding four bridges and one culvert, traffic signal upgrades, new signs, freeway lighting, and noise barrier installation.
This investment will connect expansion work completed in previous years along the corridor.
