ROAD


Misspelled I-96 signs point the way to ‘Grand Radips,’ ‘Cooperville’

OTTAWA COUNTY, MI – Road workers weren’t floating a suggestion to rename Michigan’s second-largest city to “Grand Radips” when they installed a misspelled sign on I-96 over the weekend. Nor were they hoping to rename Coopersville to “Cooperville” when they installed two more signs with misspellings at on-and-off ramps on I-96 at 68th Street. Photos of the misspelled signs on I-96 near Coopersville, such as the one pointing drivers to “Grand Radips” instead of Grand Rapids, have been making rounds on social media since they were spotted over the weekend. On Monday, April 18, Michigan Department of Transportation contractors replaced the new, misspelled Coopersville signs with the older ones and took down the “East I-96 Grand Radips” sign altogether. And while it might seem reasonable for an out-of-towner to not scratch their head at “Cooperville,” he said it’s a little harder to understand how the “Grand Radips” sign got past a number of eyes during the process.

West Michigan road commissions to help each other clear snow if coronavirus leaves them short-staffed

GRAND RAPIDS, MI -- Road commissions in West Michigan have banded together to ensure any COVID-19 staffing decreases don’t get in the way of keeping main roads clear this winter. County road commission officials want residents to know the effort could result in slower clearing times for lower-volume residential roads if a short-staffed neighboring community needs help clearing their main lines. Residents might also see unfamiliar plows helping clear their streets if their respective road commission is lacking staff due to COVID-19. “We want to plan for (staffing shortages), and hope we don’t need to use the mutual aid,” he said. Byrne said mutual aid and assistance among road commissions isn’t solely limited to that group of 14 counties.
