More I-696 closures go into effect in Southeast Michigan this weekend

As the Michigan Department of Transportation crews continue working along Interstate 696, a stretch of westbound 10 Mile Road is reopening to traffic. A planned closure of westbound I-696 goes into effect starting Friday, and is expected to last for 10 days. That closure will allow the demolition of the Church Street plaza bridge, including the breakup of 170 concrete beams.
