As part of the M-3 project, the northbound M-3 direct left-turn movement to northbound Utica Road will close permanently on Monday. Northbound M-3 traffic heading for northbound Utica Road will be directed to the next open crossover. The new configuration of Utica Road will allow through-movement from the legs east and west of M-3, resulting in safer access for both motorists and pedestrians.

Beginning at 6 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 28, through Monday, Oct. 11, 12 Mile Road will be closed at M-3 to rebuild the median lanes at the intersection. Only local traffic will be allowed on 12 Mile Road between M-97 (Groesbeck Highway) and I-94. During this stage, the 12 Mile Road closure will allow contractors to replace sewers, curb and gutter, sidewalk, and pavement at the intersection.
