Belle Isle's MacArthur Bridge under construction until late fall; only one lane open at times

The MacArthur Bridge, which connects Jefferson Avenue to Detroit's Belle Isle, is undergoing repairs until late fall 2018.

The project is being funded by the Michigan Department of Transportation and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, which are collectively investing $3.4 million.

The work will include repair to the bridge approaches, pavement repair to the bridge and sidewalk, joint replacement and an epoxy overlay.

Only one lane will be open during repairs, except during special events. There are times when pedestrians and bicyclists may also have limited access,
