One side is complete, now it’s time to narrow the other side.

Construction crews removed one lane of westbound I-96 traffic from Wixom Road to Kent Lake Road.

Tomorrow, crews will take the eastbound lanes from three lanes down to two.

This configuration will remain in place till the fall.

It’s all to make way for the traffic shift across the median. That is expected to open in the next couple of weeks.
