BACKGROUND:
Currently, I-94 BL in the city of Jackson is operating as a one-way pair with Louis Glick Highway carrying westbound traffic and Washington Avenue carrying eastbound traffic. The proposal would allow two-way traffic on both Louis Glick Highway and Washington Avenue using the current pavement width. To accommodate the change, the Michigan Avenue/Louis Glick Highway/Washington Avenue/Wildwood Avenue intersection would need to be reconstructed to allow two-way traffic patterns. Construction would occur in 2017.
