Hickory St./Palm Dr. project to begin Sept. 30 in Spring Lake Twp.

WHAT: Road Resurfacing/Crush & Shape

WHERE: Hickory St./Palm Dr.

TOWNSHIP: Spring Lake

START DATE: Sept. 30, 2022

ESTIMATED COMPLETION DATE: Oct. 21

PROJECT DETAILS: The Ottawa County Road Commission will be conducting a street resurfacing/crush and shape project on Hickory St./Palm Dr. in Spring Lake Township, with work beginning on Sept. 30, 2022.

Mill and resurfacing work will take place on Hickory St.

Crush & shape will take place on Palm Dr. Crush & shape is a structural pavement treatment that grinds, or crushes, the existing asphalt and several inches of the underlying gravel. The material is then regraded, compacted and covered with multiple layers of paver-placed hot asphalt.

To accommodate the crush & shape portion of the project, Palm Dr. will be closed to thru traffic between Hickory St. and the county line (where Palm Dr. turns to Black Lake Rd).

TRAFFIC IMPACT: Palm Dr. will be closed to thru traffic, however local traffic will be able to access residences within the closure limits. All other traffic will be detoured using Pontaluna Rd./174th Ave./Hickory St.

Traffic on Hickory St. for the resurfacing portion of the project will be maintained using temporary lane closures under flag control.
