The $1 million project includes milling and repaving of a one mile stretch of the lower roadway from the old tolls to the 4th Street off ramp in Chelsea. Variable message signs with updated lane closure and merge information will be strategically placed for the publics convenience.

To ease the impact on Chelsea residents and businesses, milling work will be scheduled for the daytime hours and roadway repaving during the evening.
