DETROIT – MDOT is asking drivers to find alternate routes around the Downriver I-75 closure.
From MDOT:Â Heads up! Avoid M-85/Fort out of Detroit thru Lincoln Park. Power outages at major intersections causing massive gridlock. Instead 94 or 96.
Southbound I-75 between Detroit and Downriver closed last month and will remain closed for the next two years.
The Michigan Department of Transportation's $200 million construction project includes replacing all of the concrete on the I-75 Rouge River bridge, the largest concrete surface in the state of Michigan, according to MDOT.
