face=Arial>Around here they don't re-pave, they dig out the old busted
concrete for miles at a stretch, and put new stuff in it's place (or they do
those 4 to 8 foot sections that are lumpy). Right now, they started doing the
I-69/I-94 interchange (I'm about 2 miles from it), and you can hear them
breaking up the concrete (they start digging at 8 am). They're replacing 4
bridges while they're there, along with the mile and a half of road surface.
They hope to be done by Nov 2016. </FONT></DIV>

face=Arial>We just got a series of new bridges at the Canadian end of I-94
(before you leave the US), along with almost all of I-94 in our county (new
concrete). But, the state ran out of money to replace the Welcome Center (the
off and on ramps are in place, the ground is leveled off, the grass has been
mowed, even the light poles are in place, but no building). :O Maybe some day
it'll get built.</DIV>
