Motorists exiting from eastbound I-94 will be able to move north or south on Ann Arbor-Saline Road, but those exiting from the westbound highway will only be able to turn north during this initial stage. Detours will be in place during the lane closures that will utilize Main Street, Eisenhower, State Street, Ellsworth Road, Lohr Road and Oak Valley Drive. The first stage will involve closing the road’s southbound lanes between Eisenhower Parkway and the eastbound I-94 exit ramp. “We schedule our appointments on the dot and it can throw us off if people run late, so we are a bit concerned about this.” “We know it definitely will affect our business, and we plan on doing as much as we can to let clients know to leave early to arrive on time,” Freymugh said. While BANA Salon and Spa owner Kim Freymugh knows that the construction is long overdue, she’s not looking forward to having to adjust during the project. The Washtenaw County Road Commission has divided the project into three phases, and each phase will include complete closure of the road in at least one direction. “But there’s going to be a lot of traffic that’s going to get very backed up coming to and from Saline in the morning and evenings.” “There are detours, and I’ll probably use Oak Valley Drive,” he said. He has no plans to switch his shopping to a different store or Meijer location during the construction. “I’ve been looking at it for 7 or 8 years now and it’s just in the worst condition,” he said.īricault uses the road multiple times a week to get to the Meijer grocery store south of Interstate 94 in Pittsfield Township. Ann Arbor resident Richard Bricault is looking forward to the new surface. The project to rehabilitate a stretch of Ann Arbor-Saline Road that has been one of the worst surfaces in the Ann Arbor area will last most of the summer. A long-awaited $2.2 million road reconstruction project will begin Monday, prompting lane closures that will last the better part of four months.
