Division Street/US-31 Repaving Project Starts Monday

The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will invest $2.5 million to repave US-31/Division Street starting next week - a project that will require lane closures and is expected to be completed in July.

Crews will be repaving US-31/Division from Grandview Parkway to Tenth Street and from Fourteenth Street to South Airport Road. The project also includes drainage structure adjustments and sidewalk ramp upgrades. Work will start Monday and go through July 14, though paving operations are scheduled to be done before the Fourth of July.

According to MDOT, drivers should expect lane closures and traffic regulators. Paving is scheduled for completion at night in early to mid-June. "This work will improve the driving surface of the road, extend the life of the roadway, and bring sidewalk ramps up to current Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards," according to MDOT.
