Road work in Holland, Hudsonville, Coopersville and Saugatuck: November 2 to 8

No new closures were identified in the sources reviewed for this week, and two of the biggest have scheduled completion dates this week. East 8th Street in Holland stays closed between US-31 and Waverly Road for the Board of Public Works water main through Thursday, November 5, BPW's estimate for completing the whole project. 96th Avenue south of Stanton Street, on the Olive and Blendon township line, is scheduled to stay closed through Monday, November 2 for a culvert replacement, with a posted detour by Fillmore Street, 76th Avenue and Taylor Street.

The long one is 112th Avenue between Port Sheldon Street and New Holland Street in Olive Township, including the 112th Avenue and Van Buren Street intersection, closed since Thursday, October 29 for a City of Wyoming water transmission line. The project list shows it closed through November 20; the notice says late November. The posted detour is New Holland Street, 120th Avenue and Port Sheldon Street.

Near Hudsonville, the Road Commission's project list now marks the 48th Avenue and Baldwin Street roundabout as completed, along with the 48th Avenue water transmission main, both Baldwin Street resurfacing jobs and New Holland Street. The left lane of I-96 near Coopersville and Allendale stays closed through November 14. The project list still shows 172nd Avenue in Grand Haven Township and 96th Avenue north of Blair Street closed, both with end dates that have passed; their current status could not be confirmed. MDOT listed no short-term lane closures in the area when Mi Drive was checked Sunday night.

Here are the road closures, lane restrictions and upcoming projects that the road commissions, MDOT, the City of Holland and the Holland Board of Public Works have posted for Monday, November 2 through Sunday, November 8, grouped by town.
