Road work on South Nottawa Street

Brick reconstruction on South Nottawa Street between US-12 and Congress Street began Monday.

The impacted section of South Nottawa Street will be closed to traffic. Vehicles are being detoured to South Maple Street. Homes and businesses in the impacted area, including city parking lots, will be accessible through the majority of the project.

In addition to the South Maple detour, several accommodations are being made for traffic in the project area. Notably, Pleasant Street will be open for two-way traffic and parking will be allowed on the west side of the street in the 100 block of South Monroe Street. There will be no parking in the construction area of South Nottawa Street or on Pleasant Street during the project. A detour map is available on the city’s website, sturgismi.gov, and Facebook page.

The city received a $470,000 grant from the state for the project. Total project, which is expected to conclude in late July, costs around $770,000 in all.
