MARQUETTE, MI-- Drivers traveling in the southern U.P. can expect some delays beginning Monday.
The Michigan Department of Transportation says a high volume of wind turbine components will be transported to the Garden Peninsula, possibly slowing traffic.
Until the first week of July, 210 loads are expected to travel the following routes:
- US-41 from Menominee to Hyde
- Local roads between Hyde and Rapid River
- US-2 from Rapid River to Garden Corners
- M-183 from US-2 south to Garden
The moves are planned for Monday through Friday during daylight hours. They won’t take place during inclement weather.
Drivers are urged to be cautious around the loads.
