DETOUR ROUTES FOR SOUTH SAGINAW ROAD

CONSTRUCTION PROJECT CHANGED

Planned detour routes for a Midland County Road Commission (MCRC) project beginning Thursday, August 5 on South Saginaw Road have been changed.

South Saginaw Road from Waldo/Gordonville Road to the south line of Midland County will be closed to through traffic for a four- to five-week project to remove and replace the existing pavement and re-establish gravel shoulders. Detours for that stretch of South Saginaw Road include Waldo Road, Salzburg Road and M-47.

As the detour route includes portions of Saginaw County, motorists should be aware that South Saginaw Road becomes Midland Road when entering Saginaw County.

Local residents and businesses will be provided access to South Saginaw Road within the construction limits.

With the 2004 construction season well underway, motorists are encouraged to sign up for weekly and last-minute construction updates by subscribing to City Hall News on the City of Midland website at www.midland-mi.org under the e-news heading. Motorists may also check the construction page on the City of Midland website for construction detour maps and details. Look for this on the City of Midland website under the “What’s New” heading.
