Weather permitting, Michigan Department of Transportation contract crews will close I-75 between M-102 (Eight Mile Road) and I-696 starting at 11 p.m. Friday night. The closure is needed for crews to demolish the existing center pier on the Nine Mile Road overpass and for pavement repair. Two lanes of northbound and southbound I-75 will open by 5 a.m. Monday, Nov. 9. During the full closure, traffic will be detoured to M-1(Woodward Ave).

In addition to the mainline freeway closure, the northbound and southbound service drives will close, and southbound I-75 will have only one lane open from 14 Mile Road to I-696 simultaneously. The following ramps are expected to close at 9 p.m. Friday:

  • Eastbound and westbound M-8 (Davison Freeway) to northbound I-75,
  • McNichols Road to northbound I-75,
  • Seven Mile Road to northbound I-75,
  • 14 Mile Road to southbound I-75,
  • 12 Mile Road to southbound I-75, and
  • 11 Mile Road to southbound I-75.

A 15-minute full closure of northbound and southbound I-75 at 12 Mile Road is scheduled to begin at 7:30 a.m. on Sunday, Nov. 8 to string overhead wires across the freeway.

Elsewhere, northbound I-75 will have only one lane open from 13 Mile to 14 Mile roads starting at 9 a.m. and ending by 3 p.m. daily Friday, Nov. 6 and Saturday, Nov. 7.
