⚠️Lane & Road Closure (5/26/2026)⚠️

Weather permitting, on Tuesday, May 26, Consumers Energy plans to close the outer eastbound lane of Grand River Avenue immediately west of Hamilton Road to replace the natural gas main.

Weather permitting, on June 9, Consumers Energy currently plans to close Hamilton Road to all traffic from Grand River Avenue to Nakoma Drive to continue replacing this aging natural gas main.

These are the first two phases of a larger project that will include replacing this natural gas main on Hamilton Road from Grand River Avenue to the Hamilton Road/Marsh Road roundabout.

At this time, the only anticipated full road closure is Hamilton Road from Grand River Avenue to Nakoma Drive.

Work at the Hamilton Road/Marsh Road roundabout is scheduled to begin in early to mid-June and move west toward Okemos Road. The outer westbound lane of Hamilton Road from the roundabout to Okemos Road will be closed when this work begins.

The full project is scheduled to be completed by September or early October.

We appreciate everyone's patience as Consumers Energy works to replace this aging gas main.
