The Michigan Department of Transportation, Forsyth Township, and the Marquette County Road Commission plan to invest about $4.4 million rebuild .66 miles of M-35 from east of Smith Street to the east branch of the Escanaba River in Gwinn.
The work includes asphalt rebuilding; concrete curb, gutter, and sidewalk ramp installation; storm sewer and drainage repairs; bridge approach repairs; watermain and sanitary sewer repairs; detour route improvements; and pavement markings. Work on Southgate Drive detour route improvements is planned to start on May 8 and be done by October. During the project, traffic will be maintained using lane closures under traffic regulators and directional detours. Long-term benefits include improvements to vehicle and pedestrian safety and operations.
