Eastbound M-29 (Green Street) closed Sept. 25-Oct. 1 for resurfacing in New Baltimore

NEW BALTIMORE, Mich. - Beginning at 7 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 25, through 7 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 1, eastbound M-29 (Green Street) will be closed from Huntley Street to Murdick Drive for resurfacing in New Baltimore, Macomb County. Westbound M-29 (Green Street) will only have one lane open. Westbound M-29 (Green Street) will be closed at a future date.

Eastbound traffic will be detoured via eastbound Main Street to reach eastbound M-29 (Green Street/Main Street).

This work is part of a $3.2 million investment on M-29 (23 Mile Road, Green Street, and Main Street) between Baker Road and the St. Clair County line to resurface the road, upgrade sidewalk curb ramps, improve pedestrian traffic signals and restripe permanent pavement markings in the city of New Baltimore and Chesterfield Township.

"Across Michigan, we are moving dirt and fixing the damn roads to grow our economy, helping Michiganders go to work, drop their kids off at school and run errands safely," said Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. "By the end of this construction season, we will have fixed, repaired or replaced nearly 24,500 lane miles of roads and 1,900 bridges, supporting thousands of good-paying, local jobs without raising taxes by a dime. This year, let's build on our momentum to pass a bipartisan local road funding plan so we can keep fixing our damn roads and creating good-paying, local jobs."

Based on economic modeling, this investment is expected to directly and indirectly support 31 jobs.
