If you're planning to cruise along US-127 near Territorial Road in Jackson County come this Sunday, prepare for a brief shuffle in your usual groove. According to the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT), intermittent lane closures are on the books due to Comcast's utility work, so anticipate some stops and starts between your sips of morning joe.
Starting at the crack of dawn, or specifically at 7 a.m. on Sunday, crews will get rolling on their maintenance magic, and you'll want to budget some extra time or plot an alternate route—lane closures will ripple through both directions of US-127 until about 11 a.m. that same day. And while the Michigan State Police will be there, orchestrating traffic like seasoned conductors to ease your way, you might still encounter some vexing delays.
This isn't just a delay—it's about safety. MDOT is closing lanes to protect both utility crews and drivers while the work gets done.
