MDOT CONSTRUCTION
US-131 - Plaster Creek Bridge
The bridge repairs and US-131 concrete repairs are progressing well and anticipated to continue for two more weeks. US-131 is closed for northbound traffic and all vehicles must exit at 28th Street for bridge construction on the Plaster Creek bridge (between 28th St and Burton St). US-131 is open north of Burton St but reduced to one lane from Burton St to Pearl St for concrete repairs to US-131. All northbound work is anticipated to be complete by April 26. Southbound US-131 will remain open during this phase.
Once the work is completed on north bound US-131, traffic will re-open and similar work will begin on south bound US-131 and the Plaster Creek bridge. Towards the end of April, US-131 will reduce to one lane on southbound US-131 between Pearl St and Burton St. There will be a full closure of US-131 at Burton Street for the Plaster Creek bridge work. This closure is also anticipated to last 4 weeks. Detailed question or information should be directed to MDOT Transportation Service Center (TSC). Northbound US-131 will remain open during the second phase.
