The Michigan Department of Transportation is hosting a public meeting on Wednesday, May 6 to discuss the road improvement projects scheduled for M-123 in Paradise.
The $3.1 million project is already underway, with an April 27 start date and an Oct. 23 end date.
According to MDOT, the project includes partial crushing and shaping of the existing pavement, asphalt repaving with wide shoulders for an ORV connector trail and improved stormwater infrastructure. A Transportation Alternatives Grant will also fund a paved shared-use path, concrete sidewalk, crosswalks and lighting.
An additional $4 million project is scheduled for MDOT to resurface 14 miles of M-123.
The May 6 meeting will take place from 3:30-5 p.m. at Whitefish Township Hall, 7052 M-123 in Paradise. MDOT staff and contractors will be in attendance.
