Bridge Tests Winding Down

It’s almost over, but you may still get stuck at the bridge next week.

More tests of the Portage Lake Lift Bridge have been scheduled as part of ongoing maintenance work

Motorists should expect delays of 10 to 15 minutes, roughly equivalent to a standard bridge lift for marine traffic, throughout the day and sometimes at night.

MDOT says traffic will be allowed to clear and resume normal flow between test lifts.

The $8.4 million project is scheduled to be completed by the end of the month.
