EAGLE HARBOR TOWNSHIP, MI— The replacement of the Silver River bridge in Keweenaw County starts next week.
The Michigan Department of Transportation is investing $2.9 million to construct a new bridge. The roadway section of the bridge will be wider, including 12-foot lanes and 8-foot shoulders, providing more space and increased safety for bicyclists and pedestrians.
M-26 just west of the western entrance to Brockway Drive will be closed starting Tuesday.
The project is expected to last about 10 weeks.
