Combined, Genesee County would see about $295.5 million worth of new projects and about $99.5 million worth of expanded projects. That equates to more than 10% of the bond funding.

The car ended up stuck in several inches of wet concrete.

A mile-long stretch between Genesee Road and Saginaw Street will undergo a road diet, which could have more people seeking other travel options during the summer months.

The roadway is the city's only heavy truck route connecting the Independence and Liberty drawbridges over the Saginaw River on the city's north side.

The $61 million project will expand two miles of I-75 from three lanes to four lanes in both directions between Hess Avenue and the south interchange with I-675, along with rebuilding the M-46 interchange.

The Michigan Department of Transportation is dealing with added costs from high water -- and the effects could be more noticeable during pothole season.

High water levels are eating away part of Lake Huron shoreline, putting part of M-25 at risk south of Port Sanilac.

Crews worked around the clock Friday night and completed the repair by 2 p.m. Saturday.

The Michigan Department of Transportation says high water levels caused a culvert to collapse and erode the shoulder.

Police say the train is blocking the Leroy Street, Adelaide Street and Silver Lake Parkway crossings.

Beginning Friday, crews will begin switching traffic on northbound I-75 from 13 Mile Road to Coolidge Highway in Oakland County onto the new pavement installed this year.

Construction of a new Lafayette Street drawbridge in Bay City will not happen next year as expected after costs for the project nearly doubled.

Some bumpy railroad crossings around Mid-Michigan will get some much needed attention with $3 million in funding from the Michigan Department of Transportation.

MDOT says they will not resume construction until May.

Officials from the Michigan Department of Transportation welcomed the public to an informational meeting Wednesday to discuss proposed changes to the I-75 and I-69 interchange.

Officials determined the concrete laid down on the farthest left two northbound lanes between 13 1/2 Mile and 14 Mile roads and shoulders on two exit ramps was the wrong mix.

A new proposal calls for flipping the configuration so I-75 bridges travel over I-69. Currently, I-69 travels over I-75 at the interchange.

Genesee County 911 reported at least two accidents in the area, one at Silver Lake and one at Owen Road after 8 a.m. Sunday.

The boats are helping monitor bridges during high water events.

The Michigan Department of Transportation is starting a $208,000 project on Monday to rehabilitate the steel substructure of the bridge.

The opening has been delayed at least two months by bad weather during the construction season.

Many say sidewalks still covered with snow and ice are not safe for pedestrians, including one area along Pierson Road in Flint on Wednesday.

After months of both sides of I-475 being closed to traffic, the Michigan Department of Transportation says the headache is almost over.

M-24 and Turrill roads will see light installation begin next week.

The roadway will finally be repaired after closing in April.

All lanes of northbound and southbound traffic will be closed beginning at 11 p.m. Friday between I-696 and Square Lake Road, which is the I-75 Business Loop.

Many businesses on the road felt the effects of the project.

The roundabout is beginning construction this week.

The Michigan Department of Transportation will close 1.5 miles of the northbound and southbound lanes separately between the I-75 north junction to Clio Road in Mt. Morris Township.

On Sunday, MDOT will close the right lane and shoulder of southbound I-75 from 8 Mile to 13 Mile roads. That will allow crews to build a wider shoulder to accommodate a traffic shift planned for phase 3 in 2020.
