MDOT ‘Restore I-94’ Construction Project underway

DETROIT – The Michigan Department of Transportation's "Restore I-94" construction project – which will extend from Wayne Road to Schaefer Road – is currently in progress. Scheduled for completion by 2029, this three-year initiative includes pavement replacement, bridge repairs and the construction of a new interchange at Ecorse Road.

During the project, travelers should anticipate lane shifts and temporary closures, including the reduction to two lanes in each direction during peak hours. The work will be divided into five segments, beginning with the section from Wayne Road to Middle Belt Road. Impacted areas include Romulus, Taylor, Allen Park, Dearborn Heights, Melvindale and Dearborn.

The Wayne County Airport Authority (WCAA) recommends that all travelers plan ahead to accommodate potential closures and traffic delays prior to leaving for Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport. 
This project will refurbish nearly 13 miles of the I-94 corridor, from east of I-275 to west of Michigan Avenue.
