MDOT to begin construction

After two delays, the Michigan Department of Transportation is set to begin next week road construction on M-216 in Flowerfield Township.

Starting Monday, the road will be closed west of the U.S. 131 intersection for a $1.8 million reconstruction project.

A detour will follow Pulver, Johnson and Flowerfield roads. The roadwork is set to be completed in June.

Previous start dates were March 18 and March 25.

Other summer projects in St. Joseph County include resurfacing M-60/66 in Colon and Leonidas townships and repaving M-86 from Nottawa Street to Shimmel Road in Centreville. Start dates for those undertakings have not been announced.
