Starting Thursday, November 20, 2025, the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will close several ramps and lanes on US-127 in Lansing. These closures are part of the ongoing US-127/I-496 rebuilding project, which has a budget of $205 million. The project aims to improve safety and traffic flow. It covers the area from I-96 to I-496 and is funded by the Rebuilding Michigan program.
Key closures include the Dunckel Road entrance ramp to southbound US-127, which will close Thursday night. The southbound US-127 Exit 73A to eastbound I-96 will close over the weekend. The northbound US-127 ramp to westbound I-496 will stay closed into the following week for more construction. Single-lane closures in both directions of US-127 are expected in the coming weeks as work continues.
More ramp closures at the I-496/US-127 interchange are planned for the week after Thanksgiving. These will affect exits to Kalamazoo Street and Trowbridge Road. Short-term closures for final ramp work will continue through the week ending December 14, 2025…
