MDOT Closing This I-75 Exit For Bridge Work

OAKLAND COUNTY, MI — Heads up, motorists. Bridge work is closing down a busy exit in Oakland County.

Ongoing bridge work will require Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) crews to close the northbound I-75 exit ramp to Chrysler Drive at 4 a.m. Sunday, Aug. 4. The ramp is expected to remain closed until the end of August as crews work to complete the repairs on the ramp bridge for the southbound I-75 exit to Chrysler Drive.

During the ramp closure, northbound I-75 traffic will be directed to eastbound M-59 to northbound Squirrel Road, then westbound Featherstone Drive to access the Chrysler facility.

The overall I-75 project includes repairing 21 bridges between South Boulevard and Baldwin Road in Auburn Hills. Included in the work is resurfacing both directions of I-75 between South Boulevard and Giddings Road. The road work includes repairing the ramps at the Chrysler Drive and M-24 (Lapeer Road) interchanges. All work on this $21 million investment is expected to be completed in November.
