(May 6, 2025 6:14 PM ET) The Michigan Department of Transportation and the City of Jackson will close two major high-traffic streets for an estimated two months to replace a water main starting Monday.
MDOT and the City will replace the water main on I-94 Business Loop (Michigan Avenue/Glick Highway) between Martin Luther King Jr. Drive and Waterloo Avenue, and on M-106 (Cooper Street) between I-94 BL and Pearl Street beginning Monday. This water main work is part of the M-106 (Cooper Street) bridge replacement project already underway.
This project will require closing I-94 BL (Michigan Avenue/Glick Highway) from Martin Luther King Jr. Drive to Waterloo Avenue to install a new water main. This work is needed to tie into the City of Jackson’s water main project on Pearl Street. Local traffic will be maintained on I-94 BL (Michigan Avenue) between Waterloo Avenue and M-106.
Westbound I-94 BL (Michigan Avenue) traffic will be detoured via Ganson Street and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.
Eastbound I-94 BL traffic will be detoured via Martin Luther King Jr. Drive, Ganson Street and Waterloo Avenue.
Northbound M-106 (Cooper Street) traffic will be detoured via Washington Avenue, I-94 BL (Glick Highway) and Martin Luther King Jr. Drive.
Southbound M-106 (Cooper Street) traffic will be detoured via Ganson Street, Jackson Street, I-94 BL (Glick Highway) and Washington Avenue.
The project and closures begin Monday, May 12, 2025 and are estimated to be complete by Friday, July 18, 2025.
