Culvert on M-35 to be replaced
MARQUETTE –The Michigan Department of Transportation is completing work on the $1.2 million project to remove and replace a deteriorated culvert on M-35 over a tributary of O’Neal Creek in Marquette County’s Palmer-Gwinn area, with work set to start Wednesday, May 13.
The culvert was installed in 2019 and road work will be completed this year. Work includes guardrail, asphalt approach work, and pavement markings. It is expected to be completed June 15.
The work will require single-lane closures with one alternating lane of traffic maintained by temporary signals. This project will increase safety and extend the lifespan of the roadway.
This road construction project is an essential function. Transportation workers in the field follow Centers for Disease Control guidelines to limit their risk of getting sick.
