The major road construction project is underway at the Okemos Road and Jolly Road intersection in Okemos which has been causing some very slow traffic in that area lately. Well, today you may want to avoid an area just east of that intersection. The Ingham County Road Department says officials will be completely closing Jolly Road  just east of Ambassador Drive for installation of a new culvert. The closure is expected to start in the morning and they say that local access will be restored by the end of day. (Thursday, April 19th) If you didn't know, Ambassador Drive is east of Dobie Road.

Unfortunately, the road construction in that area will be continuing throughout the summer. Officials say the project is expected to continue until Labor Day.  Click here to read more about the Jolly Road and Okemos Road 2018 construction.
