On Thursday, October 3, 2024, the Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) will close Willow Rd between Carpenter Rd and Sanford Rd in York Township during the daytime hours to replace a crossroad culvert.
The road improvements are expected to take approximately one day to complete. However, all dates are tentative and subject to change due to weather conditions.

On Friday, October 4, 2024, a contractor for the Washtenaw County Road Commission (WCRC) will install centerline corrugations (rumble strips) on Willis Rd between the city of Saline and Platt Rd in York Township.
The impact to traffic is daytime lane closures. Access will be maintained for anyone who lives or works within the project limits.
The road improvements are expected to take approximately two days to complete. However, all dates are tentative and subject to change due to weather conditions.
I have to commend the Saline City manager and engineer for keeping their cool and for their professionalism during the three hour Mill Pond Dam town hall meeting.
I think what's insulting is that the city is bloating the numbers to bolster their case.
Logically, the dam has no practical use. Of course, it's going to cost more. Of course, there's a level of risk there. Of course, over some period of time, it's going to cost more to maintain than a stream.
Life cycle cost analysis is certainly appropriate when considering new assets, but it may not be as appropriate when evaluating existing assets.
