The start of the major reconstruction of Quincy Street in Hancock is approaching.
The Michigan Department of Transportation Communications Representative Dan Weingarten says the Quincy Street Streetscape Project will have a big impact on local motorists.
The project will focus mainly on US-41 through downtown Hancock, including upgrades to the water infrastructure and a complete reconstruction of the road.
Though there will be headaches for motorists this summer, the hope is that the end result is worth it, much like the Houghton streetscape project a few years ago.
Work is scheduled to begin next month and last until July 2017.
