Previewing 2027 construction: Traffic shift on I-94 will remain through winter, more work on I-696

Metro Detroit drivers face a mix of roadwork updates, with some relief coming as eastbound I-696 between M-10 and I-75 reopens before the end of the year. However, the traffic shift on I-94 between Wayne Road and Oakwood Boulevard will remain in place through late summer 2027. Additional I-94 work is expected in Detroit, including single-lane closures for bridge and pavement repairs, and preliminary reconstruction work in Macomb County. Furthermore, ramps from eastbound Davison to I-75 will close for several months. Looking ahead to next year, I-696 will see lane reductions between I-75 and Dequindre for repairs scheduled to finish by summer 2027. Local business owners and commuters are advised to find alternate routes to avoid significant delays.
