Township roadwork set to start
Signs of spring in Canton Township will include large orange detour and road work bulleting throughout the community.
Repaving of Lotz Road between Michigan Avenue to Palmer Road will begin this month, officials said along with projects set for Lilley Road between Michigan Avenue and Palmer Road and Sheldon Road from Warren Road to Sheldon Center.
The road improvements will be funded through the road improvement program approved by Canton Township voters in 2018. Costs are estimated at about $3 million.
Wayne County will also be working on road improvements in the township including a resurfacing of Hannan Road from Van Born to Michigan Avenue; crack sealing and repair of Sheldon Road from Cherbough Avenue to Proctor, and from Geddes Road to Palmer; crack sealing and joint repair is also planned for Cherry Hill Road from Denton to Canton Center and on Ridge Road from Cherry Hill to Ford and Denton Road from Geddes to Saltz.
Motorists are urged to use caution and travel at reduced speeds in the construction areas.
