Traffic alert: US-2 Cut River Bridge lane closures Monday through Thursday

Motorists should expect daytime single-lane closures on the US-2 Heath M. Robinson Memorial Cut River Bridge in Mackinac County from March 5 to 8 for bridge inspection work.

Contractors for the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will be taking bridge measurements for this summer's planned repair project. Work is expected to begin Monday and be completed by Thursday. Closures are planned for daytime hours only.

A width restriction will also be in place, with no loads wider than 12 feet permitted while the lane closures are in effect.

Traffic in the work area will be maintained with a temporary traffic signal. Motorists should expect delays of less than 10 minutes.
