OAKLAND COUNTY, Mich. – Weather permitting, crews will close the northbound I-75 ramp to Big Beaver Road at 5 a.m. Monday, Sept. 30, for reconstruction.
During the ramp closure, northbound traffic will be directed to use the Corporate Drive/Crooks Road exit ramp.
A detour will be posted for drivers back to Big Beaver Road. Currently, all I-75 traffic is using the southbound side of the freeway between 13 Mile Road and Coolidge Highway with temporary exits for northbound drivers at 14 Mile Road, Big Beaver Road and Corporate Drive/Crooks Road.
- Crews will close the northbound I-75 ramps to Big Beaver Road on Monday, Sept 30.
