The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will host an open house on September 19 on a planned new roundabout at the intersection of US-131 and M-186 in Fife Lake.

The meeting will be held from 5pm-7pm at the American Legion Post 219 at 10283 M-186 in Fife Lake. Residents, commuters, and business owners are invited to attend to hear an update on the final design and construction scheduled for the new roundabout. The will be a single-lane design, similar to the roundabout at the intersection of M-37 and M-115 in Mesick. The project will require closing the gas station driveway closest to the intersection, and other driveways will be moved.

Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in spring 2019 and be completed by early summer. More information on how to use roundabouts and their safety benefits is available online here.

Accommodations can be made at the open house for persons with disabilities and limited English speaking ability. Large print materials, auxiliary aids or the services of interpreters, signers, or readers are available upon request. Please call 517-373-9534 to request these services at least seven days before the meeting date.
