Whether you live in Detroit or the suburbs, it seems hard to avoid road construction these days.
In Royal Oak, things are about to get messy on Main Street, one of downtown's main arteries.
Residents and motorists can expect six months of snarled traffic along a half-mile of South Main Street after a $2.2-million road construction project gets underway this week, Mike McConnell writes in The Daily Tribune. The project is expected to be done in November.
Traffic will be reduced to one lane in each direction between Lincoln Avenue and 10 Mile Road. Parking also is affected.
The paper reports that the work includes milling and resurfacing South Main Street, curb and gutter construction, streetscape installations, plantings and ornamental lighting.
