Construction, repairs to Ozga Road in Romulus remain on schedule
The Ozga Road repair project in Romulus remains on schedule and should be completed by Nov. 15, according to a briefing from city officials.
The project currently includes necessary construction waiting periods. Storm sewer installation is expected to begin pending weather conditions and timely delivery of materials. This work will take place in multiple locations along the project corridor, noted Romulus Director of Public Services & Public Works Roberto Scappaticci.
Currently, traffic is being allowed on the gravel base to help identify any weak areas. If any sections of the base are found to be inadequate, they will be removed and replaced before paving begins, he added.
Starting midweek of Sept. 29, the contractor will mobilize specialized equipment to mill the ramps on Ozga Road that pass over I-94. After this work is complete, the gravel base will be compacted and graded in preparation for the first phase of asphalt paving, scheduled for mid-October, Scappaticci said.
“Romulus is committed to delivering a high-quality, durable roadway, and we appreciate your continued patience and understanding throughout this construction process,” Scappaticci concluded in a Facebook post.
