Ontonagon County Bridge Project

ONTONAGON – State Bridge Project in the Area Continues. Work has begun on the last of four bridges in Ontonagon and Iron counties that have been part of a $4.9 million project by the Michigan Department of Transportation. The work on the US-141 bridge over the East Branch of the Net River will involve deck replacement, substructure repairs, scour countermeasures, beam end repairs, steel cleaning and coating, and roadway approach work. The M-64 bridge over Floodwood River, M-64 bridge over Halfway Creek, and US-45 bridge over Roselawn Creek were completed last year. The bridge will be open during the work, with one lane open using temporary traffic signals. There will also be an 11-foot width restriction. The work on the US-141 bridge over the East Branch of the Net River is expected to finish at the end of October.
