Construction progress is accelerating as expected. Next week, the contractors will begin pouring concrete walls on the west side of Northland Drive, and they will begin setting the first pieces of the precast concrete tunnel. The precast pieces are expected to arrive on Thursday (August 20) morning. There may be some short-term traffic disruption as the trucks arrive, especially on 7 Mile Road just east of Northland Drive.
The current traffic configuration will remain in place for the next several weeks.
