February 25, 2022 – The City of Midland Engineering Department is ramping up for another busy construction season in 2022 with a variety of street reconstruction, resurfacing, and water main replacement projects on this year’s list.
Planned high-traffic improvements include street reconstruction projects on Jefferson Avenue from Sugnet Road to Wheeler Street; W. Wackerly Street from Partridge Lane to Sturgeon Avenue; and Waldo Avenue from James Savage Drive to Bay City Road.
Projects on local streets include street reconstruction and water main replacements on E. Pine Street from Rodd Street to George Street, Woodbridge Lane from Brambleridge Lane to Moorland Drive, Brambleridge Lane from Woodbridge Lane to Sutton Place, Cortland Street from Brookfield Drive to the end of Cortland Court, and North Street from George Street to Jefferson Avenue.
In addition, crews will begin a street extension project that will create a new section of roadway on Sugnet Road from Main Street to Northwood Drive. This project is expected to begin in May 2022.
