Feb 26, 2024

Some daytime and overnight restrictions are scheduled this week as part of highway construction projects.

  • All scheduled work is contingent upon weather.
  • To help ensure the safety of construction workers and the traveling public, motorists should remain alert, reduce their speed, and watch for stopped traffic while passing through the work zones.

Mill Creek Expressway Project

Monday, February 26 (some construction elements continuing through early December)

Starting today, motorists have access to a new ramp from I-75 South to I-74 West, and they also have access to the Beekman Street/Colerain Avenue exit at the end of the new flyover bridge. 

  • For motorists traveling from I-75 North, there will be no direct access from I-74 West to the Beekman Street/Colerain Avenue exit. Instead, drivers will be detoured by way of a Texas Turnaround at Montana Avenue, looping motorists off I-74 West onto Montana Avenue and back onto I-75 East to the Beekman Street exit.
  • In conjunction with the detour, temporary signals at the northbound Beekman Street off-ramp from I-74 East have been installed. These signals are in stop-and-go operation starting Monday, and will remain in place through early December.

During the 2024 construction season, the Mill Creek Expressway – Phase 5B project will see the reconstruction of the I-74 bridges over Spring Grove Avenue and Elmore Street, as well as the replacement of median barrier, pavement, highway lighting, signage, traffic monitoring system, noise walls, bridge painting, and drainage.
