HOUGHTON — A Michigan Department of Natural Resources bridge replacement project along the Donken-Tapiola Road is expected to delay motorists over an eight-week construction period, beginning soon.

Mobilization to install an arched culvert over the Misery River, south of Donken and just east of M-26 is scheduled to begin June 6.

“This will close down a fairly well-traveled road for that duration,” said Brad Carlson, Baraga unit manager for the DNR’s Forest Resources Division.
