Road Commission Talks Future of Cedar Run/Gray, Long Lake/Strait, Three Mile/Potter, Franke
By Beth Milligan | Oct. 30, 2025
The Grand Traverse County Road Commission (GTCRC) hopes to include funding in its 2026 budget to complete intersection studies for Long Lake/Strait and Three Mile/Potter roads and to possibly install a traffic signal and new turn lanes at Cedar Run/Gray roads. The GTCRC board discussed the safety of all three intersections at their most recent meeting, where they also approved an $84,500 contract for design services for Franke Road ahead of planned construction work next year.
