GWINN — Work on the Michigan Department of Transportation rebuilding project from east of Smith Street to the east branch of the Escanaba River in Gwinn will resume April 22, weather permitting.

MDOT, Forsyth Township, and the Marquette County Road Commission are investing about $4.4 million to rebuild 0.7 miles of M-35 in Gwinn. Work includes asphalt rebuilding; concrete curb, gutter, and sidewalk ramp installation; storm sewer and drainage repairs; bridge approach repairs; water main and sanitary sewer repairs; detour route improvements; and pavement markings. Work was begun last year. About two blocks of the project remain to be completed.

The project is expected to be completed in June. Until then, one lane of alternating traffic will be maintained from North Billings Street to east of Smith Street using temporary signals.
