BIG BEAVER ROAD

When police pulled over a Sterling Heights man for swerving all over the road, he admitted that he shouldn’t have been driving because he’d had too much to drink and hadn’t owned a valid license in 20 years, according to authorities.

Officials said a drunk driver backed into a Troy police car during a traffic stop and poured her alcoholic beverage on the ground when officers asked about it.

Troy police arrested a woman who is accused of getting drunk on her lunch break and rear-ending another vehicle that was slowing down for a red light, authorities said.

Both men were taken to the hospital, where the 48-year-old man was pronounced dead. The 51-year-old man was last known to be in stable condition, according to the TV station.

Both sides of I-75 in Oakland County will close this weekend for surface treatment needed after a tanker fire damaged the freeway last month.

Freeway lanes and ramps will reopen on a section of I-75 at Big Beaver Road in Troy by late afternoon Wednesday (Aug. 11) after a tanker truck fire damaged the area in July.

Repairs to the section of I-75 where a tanker truck caught fire this week will cost about $1.5 million and take six weeks, officials estimate.

All lanes were closed in both directions for more than 24 hours following the incident, the TV station reports. The crash occurred when the tanker driver lost control while navigating a curve near Big Beaver. MDOT reopened the southbound right lane on Tuesday, July 13, and plans to reopen the northbound right lane this afternoon, Wednesday, July 14. The right lanes will be closed for repairs after the other lanes reopen. To minimize delays, the entrance ramps to southbound I-75 are closed at Crooks and Big Beaver roads until the repair work is completed, MDOT said.
