Highway 29, Nine Mile Road Closures Planned

January 6, 2019

The following lane and road closures are scheduled for Highway 29 and Nine Mile Road from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Sunday, January 6 through Tuesday, January. 8, as crews pour the deck for the new northbound bridge.

  • Highway 29: The outside, northbound lane will be closed at the Nine Mile Road overpass to provide a safe work zone for bridge crews.
  • Nine Mile Road: Eastbound Nine Mile Road traffic will be reduced to one lane, diverted to Highway 29 South, and able to make a U-turn at West Hood Drive to return to Nine Mile Road. Westbound traffic will utilize Highway 29 North and U-turn at West 9 1/2 Mile Road to return to Nine Mile Road. Traffic control officers will be on-site to help direct traffic.
  • Additionally, Highway 29 traffic between Interstate 10 and 9 1/2 Mile Road may experience alternating lane closures as crews continue drainage and paving operations.

Construction activities are weather dependent and may be delayed or rescheduled in the event of inclement weather. Drivers should use caution, especially at night, when traveling through the work zone, and watch for construction workers and equipment entering and exiting the roadway.

    The light at 9 1/2 Mile Rd has been screwed up since they started construction about 2 years ago. You will sit in the left turn lane FOREVER waiting for the green light you need to make the U turn to get back to 9 Mile.
