Traffic rerouted for repairs to US-131 overpass

BYRON CENTER, Mich. (WOOD) — A Friday night crashis will be forcing northbound drivers to make an unexpected detour on US-131 Sunday morning.

Commuters will have to exit the highway at the 100th Street exit and then reenter the highway via the entrance ramp across the street beginning at 7 a.m. Sunday. Two semi tractor-trailers carrying an oversized shipping container struck the overpass Friday night, damaging the overpass.

“The trucking company at fault will be on the hook for the bill,” MDOT Communications Representative John Richard said. “But whatever they had on that load was piled up too high and both trucks hit the bridge.”
