Roadwork update - week of 7-17-17

This week, the Washtenaw County Road Commission will be milling and resurfacing Scio Church Road between Gunther Rd and Steinbach Rd on Wednesday, July 19th. Scio Chuch Road will be closed along that stretch with a suggested detour from Gunther Rd to Liberty Rd to Steinbach Rd. Also starting Wed., further east on Scio Church Road, the Road Commission will begin the construction of a single-lane roundabout at the intersection of Scio Church Rd. & Wagner Rd. This will result in the closure of the intersection. This construction is projected to run into early August. If you plan to take Pleasant Lake Rd to avoid Scio Church Road this week, on your drive into Ann Arbor, be alerted that Pleasant Lake Road is projected to continue to be closed between Parker Rd to Zeeb Rd through Thursday for a culvert replacement, and it's suggested detour includes Scio Church Rd.
