2025 Construction Season Begins

Construction begins this week on some of the city's 2025 infrastructure projects scheduled for this year. The renewed road millage funding will focus on major roads first, but the city's other infrastructure projects will continue in residential neighborhoods as well.

The city realizes construction will be an inconvenience and all efforts to expedite the work will be utilized to minimize traffic conflicts and access to various properties abutting the project.

Notices of Construction are mailed to affected residents and copies are available online here.

CAP2509 13 Mile Road Resurfacing

13 Mile Road from Woodward Avenue to Crooks Road

The contractor has shifted traffic to the inside lanes of the roadway. The contractor will continue working on the outside lanes of the roadway removing and replacing concrete curbing and driveways. They will also begin work later this week replacing concrete at the major intersections, half at a time.

Traffic Changes:  13 Mile Road will have one lane open in each direction throughout construction. To decrease traffic backups, left turns will be prohibited along the corridor and at the major intersections of Coolidge Highway, Benjamin Avenue, Durham Road (eastbound only), and Crooks Road (eastbound only). Access to businesses will be maintained during construction.

This work is scheduled to be completed by the end of July, in advance of Dream Cruise weekend.

CAP2514 Downtown Resurfacing

The city will be resurfacing Williams Street from E Seventh to E Third and W Sixth Street from S Washington to S Center this Spring. The contractor will also be installing ADA parking spaces and ramps on W Second Street adjacent to the post office.

On Williams Street, the contractor has begun concrete removals at the south end blocks of Williams and will pour new concrete later this week.

On Sixth Street, the contractor has begun concrete removal and replacement of some curbing and sidewalks.
