Morton – The Detroit Ave. roadway widening and intersection improvement project is currently taking place. Stage 1 construction includes the closure of Detroit Ave. in between Jackson St. & Jefferson St. Work will also begin to widen the east side of Detroit Ave. south of Jefferson. 2 way traffic will be maintained on Detroit Ave., south of Jefferson and on Jackson. The project consists of widening approx. 1/3 mile of Detroit Ave to 5 lanes and reconstructing Jefferson from W. Bond to west for approx. 1/4 mile. Improvements also include new traffic signals at Jefferson and Jackson. If you are using the Morton Trail, you might need to take a detour at the intersection. Completion is expected around December 2016.
