Attention residents of the City of Troy and motorists who use the Big Beaver or 14 Mile Road Interchanges:
As part of the I-75 Modernization Project, the interchanges at Big Beaver and 14 Mile Roads are being reconstructed into Diverging Diamond Interchanges (DDI’s). The Big Beaver interchange is anticipated to open mid-April, while 14 Mile Road Interchange is anticipated to open in Spring of 2021.
Update February 9, 2021 - The DDI at Big Beaver Road is scheduled to open by mid-April. Several activities need to take place including installing new signals, application of permanent and special pavement markings, and constructing new curbs. Crews are awaiting suitable weather to complete these necessary steps. Thank you for your continued patience.
DDI’s are a safer option for both motorists and pedestrians. To learn more about DDI’s including how to navigate them please visit our Project Highlights - DDI Edition page under “Travel I-75”.
