5AM-6PM, Wednesday, 5/21, the southbound I-275 ramp to eastbound I-96 will be CLOSED to install a temporary barrier wall between the ramp lane and the work zone, which currently has only barrels.

Detour is SB 275 to EB I-94. For drivers who use other local roads, remember there is construction on Ann Arbor Road and that should not be used as a detour route.

It’s possible that the work is delayed to Thursday, 5/22 or Friday, 5/23. Check Michigan.gov/drive for the latest information on construction locations. And M14reconstruction.org for project information.

NB/SB Beck Rd ramps to EB M-14 are expected to reopen early next week.

And a reminder that beginning 5am, Friday, May 16, EB M-14 ramp to Sheldon will close through late June for construction. Drivers must use the Beck Road exit or drive through the construction zone to the Farmington Rd exit.

LIVONIA/PLYMOUTH TOWNSHIP, Mich. – As the M-14/I-96 project moves to the next stage of paving and rebuilding, there will be ramp closures at the M-14/I-96 interchange with I-275.

“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.” 

6 a.m. Monday, April 28 – late June:

  • The northbound I-275 ramp to eastbound I-96 will be closed.
    • Detour: Eastbound I-696, southbound M-10 to southbound M-39 to I-96.
  • Eastbound I-96 Exit 173 to Newburgh Road will be closed.
    • Detour: Farmington Road Exit 174.
  • Eastbound Schoolcraft Road will have one lane open at Newburgh Road; the crossover bridges west of Newburgh Road will be closed.

9 a.m.- 3 p.m. Monday, April 28:

The southbound I-275 ramp to eastbound I-96 will be closed for pavement markings (expected to be a very brief closure).

EB and WB M-14/I-96 will be reconstructed between the project limits shown below as well as critical ramps at the M-14/I-96/I-275 Interchange. Hover over or click on the roadway segments to see map interactive features.
