US-31 Resurfacing in Emmet County
MDOT will invest nearly $4.3 million to resurface 10.2 miles of US-31 from Graham Road to Blumke Road through the village of Oden, and from Milton Road to Douglas Lake Road in the village of Pellston. The project will include pedestrian accessibility improvements and concrete curb and gutter replacements along the route. A separate maintenance project will resurface 450 feet of US-31 from Graham Road south over the Crooked Lake outlet. Based on economic modeling, this investment is expected to directly and indirectly support 41 jobs.
| County: | Emmet |
| Highway: | US-31 |
| Closest communities: | Oden and Pellston |
| Start date: | Tuesday, April 15, 2025 |
| Estimated end date: | Friday, August 15, 2025 |
| Traffic restrictions: | From April 15 to May 21, crews will be resurfacing 450 feet of US-31 south of Graham Road over the Crooked Lake outlet. That work will require daytime single-lane closures with traffic regulators.
Also, from April 15 to May 21, contractors will resurface US-31 from North Conway Road to Blumke Road. This work will require a detour of US-31 through-traffic on North Conway Road to Powers Road; US-31 will be open to local traffic only between North Conway Road and Powers Road. From May 22 to June 12, contractors will resurface US-31 from Graham Road to North Conway Road. This segment will primarily be done at night, with single-lane closures and traffic regulators. From June 13 to Aug. 15, contractors will resurface US-31 from the north intersection of Milton Road to Douglas Lake Road. This work will require daytime single-lane closures with traffic regulators. |
| Safety benefit: | In addition to upgrading pedestrian ramps to Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards, this project will include new pavement markings and rumble strips. |
