BLOOMFIELD TOWNSHIP — This month, the Michigan Department of Transportation will begin rebuilding the Interstate-75 business loop, which comprises Square Lake Road from Woodward Avenue to I-75 in Bloomfield Township. “The current pavement has reached its useful life and is beginning to become unsafe for travelers and inefficient to continue maintenance activities. Replacing this pavement now is the right decision for the best use of taxpayer dollars and it will significantly improve the driver’s safety and experience traveling this route,” MDOT engineer David Anason said in a statement. The community can learn more about the project and how it will affect their commute during a public meeting 5:30-7:30 p.m. April 10 in the auditorium of Bloomfield Township Hall, 4200 Telegraph Road. Anason said MDOT always strives to engage the public at every phase of a project. “We had public meetings during the design phase, and now that we’re moving into the construction phase, the public needs to know about future traffic impacts to this area,” he said in an email.
