The intersection of Pleasant Lake Rd and Zeeb Rd in Lodi Township is officially closed to traffic and a detour has been posted. The Washtenaw County Road Commission will be widening the intersection and installing a flashing beacon.
The work is expected to be completed by the end of July. However, all dates are tentative and subject to change due to weather conditions.
The reconstruction and paving of Zeeb Road between Pleasant Lake Rd and Ellsworth Road will take place after the intersection project.
If you have any questions concerning this work, please contact James Hui, project manager, (734) 327-6660, or via email at huij@wcroads.org.
Patchy rain nearby, with a high of 47 and low of 31 degrees. Don't forget your umbrella! Sunny for the morning, overcast in the afternoon, clear overnight.
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.
