PITTSFIELD TWP., MI - Motorists rejoice: Construction that caused severe traffic trouble for weeks on Ann Arbor-Saline Road is complete.

The Washtenaw County Road Commission said Ann Arbor-Saline Road between Waters Road/Lohr Road and the I-94 ramps in Pittsfield Township reopened at 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 8, a week ahead of schedule.

The road commission had been repairing concrete between Oak Valley Drive and Lohr Road, closing the road to all traffic beginning Oct. 7.

The repairs were part of a two phase project. The first phase, between Oak Valley Drive and Lohr Road, was completed Friday, Oct. 25. The second phase, between Lohr Road and the I-94 ramps, began on Oct. 28, causing traffic delays in the area.

The road commission is also planning upgrades at Ann Arbor-Saline and Wagner roads and at Ann Arbor-Saline and Pleasant Lake roads in spring 2020.

The project at Wagner includes pavement, drainage improvements, dedicated turn lanes and a traffic signal installation. The intersection will close for three months for this project.

The Pleasant Lake Road project will include a left-turn signal and updated signal timing. The intersection will remain open, with intermittent lane restrictions.
