Beginning 10 p.m. Friday, nine miles of westbound Interstate 94 through Ann Arbor will be closed to all traffic beginning at U.S. 23.
The closure is a part of an ongoing $4 million construction project by the Michigan Department of Transportation.
Drivers on westbound I-94 will be diverted to northbound U.S. 23 at the interchange. The detour route will follow U.S. 23 to M-14.
Entrance ramps to westbound I-94 will be closed through Ann Arbor routes, as the construction ends where M-14 merges with I-94 on the west side of Ann Arbor.
Westbound I-94 will reopen to drivers 5 a.m. Monday.
In addition to the full closure of both westbound lanes, several lane and ramp closures are scheduled in order to accommodate increased traffic on the detour and to prevent accidents during traffic merging.
- Ramp from westbound I-94 to southbound U.S. 23: Closed
- Ramp from eastbound I-94 to northbound U.S. 23: Closed
- Ramp from northbound U.S. 23 to westbound I-94: Closed
- Northbound U.S. 23 at I-94: One lane closed

Weather permitting, MDOT is planning to close both lanes of westbound I-94 in the same project bounds for the same period of time next weekend as well.
The westbound work on I-94 follows two previous weekend closures of the eastbound lanes.
