ST. IGNACE, MI— Paving work on the Mackinac Bridge has again been delayed.
Completion of the first season of the two-season project is now expected next week. Citing rainy weather that has prevented paving, along with projected rain in weather forecasts, project contractor Zenith Tech says remaining paving should be completed around the middle of the week of June 10.
Crews are completing work on the northern end of the bridge this week. An expected total of three to four more full days of paving are needed to complete the work on the southern portions of the bridge.
Traffic is being maintained with one lane open in each direction during construction.
