M-72 Resurfacing Starts Monday

The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will spend $1.8 million to resurface 11.3 miles of M-72 from Coleman Road to Bugai Road starting Monday, June 17.

Project work will also include installation of new roadside reflectors on M-72 from the M-22 intersection in Empire to the M-22 intersection in Traverse City. Construction will require daytime single-lane closures with traffic regulators. The project includes new pavement markings and rumble strips, as well as enhanced reflectors marking the roadside edge.

Construction is anticipated to last through Saturday, July 27.
