LITTLE LAKE, Mich. (WZMQ) – The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) is set to begin roadwork on M-35 in Marquette County in early June.
MDOT is investing about $3 million to resurface eleven miles of M-35 from the Delta County line to Marquette County Road 456 and rebuild a railroad crossing in Marquette County. The project will include asphalt overlay, shoulder work, and pavement markings.
The nearest communities impacted by the work will be Little Lake and McFarland. Motorists can expect single-lane closures with a traffic regulator.
Based on economic modeling, the project is expected to directly and indirectly support 29 jobs. The work will extend the lifespan of the roadway and increase safety for motorists.
The work will tentatively start on June 9 and end in late July.
