Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC) Managing Director Brent Bair announced that all RCOC road and bridge construction projects will be suspended at 3 p.m. on July 1, for the July 4 holiday weekend.
‘The Road Commission wants to ensure that its roads are as free of obstructions as possible during this period because of the increased holiday traffic we typically see on the July 4 weekend,? Bair stated. ‘That should help to ensure safe and convenient holiday travel for motorists in Oakland County.?
Bair also prohibited the hauling of earth-moving equipment and other large contractor equipment on county roads during the holiday weekend. Many lane closures will be eliminated for the weekend.
Work will resume July 5 after 6 a.m.
