Parkway Progress: Segment 2 Begins July 8

July 6, 2024

After a three-week break, Team Elmers and the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) are back to work on the Grandview Parkway reconstruction in Traverse City. July 8 marks the start of Segment 2 of the project, which is expected to last until November. From now until Labor Day (tentatively), crews will work on the eastbound lanes of US-31 between the Front St/Grandview Parkway intersection and Division St. The lanes will be closed during construction, with one lane of US-31 traffic maintained in each direction on the westbound lanes. Around Labor Day, traffic will shift to the completed eastbound lanes. Be alert for new vehicle and pedestrian detours as you navigate downtown TC! More information can be found at traversecitymi.gov/projects/mdot-grandview-parkway-project.html.
