Work on M-102 (8 Mile Road) moves near M-53 Van Dyke Ave for approximately a month in Detroit

DETROIT, Mich. - Beginning Monday, April 15, eastbound and westbound M-102 (8 Mile Road) will have double-lane closures near M-53 (Van Dyke Avenue) for approximately a month.

This $50 million investment involves resurfacing approximately 5 miles of M-102 (8 Mile Road) between M-1 (Woodward Avenue) and M-53 (Van Dyke Avenue) through the communities of Detroit, Ferndale, Hazel Park, and Warren.

The work includes hot-mix asphalt resurfacing, concrete patching, signal upgrades, sidewalk ramp improvements compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), sign replacement, drainage upgrades, and bridge work at I-75.

Based on economic modeling, this project is expected to directly and indirectly support 710 jobs.
