WEEKLY ALERTS
There will be intermittent ramp shoulder closures on the NB I-75 ramps of the 14 Mile, Rochester and Corporate interchanges starting Monday, January 14, 2019 to Wednesday, January 16, 2019 from about 8am to 4pm. These intermittent ramp shoulder closures are required to move vehicles in and out of the interchange to start tree removals on the infield areas. This will not impact freeway traffic. There are NO freeway or ramp closures.
The preliminary work on southbound I-75 between Coolidge Highway and 13 Mile Road has concluded and all lanes are now open to traffic. Preliminary work included widening and paving the shoulders of I-75 for an eventual traffic shift next year, putting all traffic on the southbound side of the freeway with two lanes open each direction, as was done in the first segment of construction in 2016.
This news comes just one day after the northbound lanes and Rochester Road work also wrapped up early for the winter.
Work on this project will start again in early spring 2019. Thank you all for your continued patience with this important project. See full press release.
The I-75 Modernization Project within Oakland County - From M-102 to South Boulevard - is a mega project and being managed by an independent MDOT I-75 Team.

THE LATEST
Northbound I-75 Intermittent Ramp Shoulder Closures for Tree Removals
The MDOT infield areas of the interchanges at 14 Mile, Rochester and Corporate will have some tree removals starting Monday, January 14, 2019 to Wednesday, January 16, 2019 from about 8am to 4pm. This will not impact freeway traffic, but may require intermittent shoulder closures only on ramps to or from NB I-75. There are NO freeway or ramp closures. But this is needed to move vehicles in and out of the interchange safely to conduct these activities. Crews will also be documenting the areas for vegetation replacement at the end of the project. The work is required to make room for equipment and materials storage during the project in the short term, for the upcoming Spring freeway construction.
