Ishpeming fireworks routes told
ISHPEMING — Construction in the city of Ishpeming is expected to have a minimal impact on local Fourth of July activities, but may change the way Independence Day celebrants leave Al Quaal Recreation Area following the fireworks on Wednesday.
The Ishpeming Police Department is advising that both lanes of Hickory Street are expected to be open prior July 4, but traffic leaving the Ishpeming fireworks from that street will only be permitted to turn eastbound — toward Negaunee — onto U.S. 41 at that time.
People wishing to travel west on U.S. 41 toward Ishpeming Township or into the downtown Ishpeming area are asked to use the roundabout when leaving the fireworks.
Questions should be directed to the Ishpeming Police Department at 906-486-4416.
