M-26 & US-41 Four Way Stops For Traffic Signal Upgrades

Work to upgrade the traffic signals will begin this week at several intersections in Houghton.

The Michigan Department of Transportation will be working on the lights at M-26 and Sharon Avenue, Brickyard Lane and Green Acres Road, as well as US-41 at MacInnes Drive and at Isle Royale Street.

Upgrades on the signal control systems will be performed Tuesday through Thursday.

While being worked on, each intersection will be controlled with a four-way stop.

Work at each location is expected to take less than a day.

After the upgrades, the stop signs will be removed and the traffic signals will return to full operation.
