100th Street Overpass Over US-131 Closed for Months
After getting damaged last week, the 100th Street Overpass over US-131 in Byron Township is closed for repairs.
Fox 17 reports that on Friday, January 12, two semi trucks with high shipping containers were headed northbound when they struck the overpass. Beams, the bridge railing, and part of the deck were damaged.
US-131 has since reopened, but drivers cannot pass over the bridge. Traffic is being detoured to either 84th Street or 142nd Avenue.
MDOT says the it could take more than six months to repair the bridge.
