Mayor: roundabout at M-21 and Scott Road under early study; not expected before 2029
Summary
Mayor Scott Dzurka said the state and local agencies have begun early engineering conversations about a potential roundabout at M-21 and Scott Road, with preliminary sketches and assurances buildings would not be affected; the project is in early stages and not expected before 2029.
Mayor Scott Dzurka updated the Planning Commission on preliminary discussions with the Road Commission, township officials and MDOT about a proposed roundabout at the M-21/Scott Road intersection. Dzurka said the conversation is at an early stage, MDOT believes a roundabout would improve safety, and the agencies provided assurances that nearby buildings would be protected. "This isn’t happening until 2029," he said, emphasizing the long planning horizon.
Commissioners noted the importance of public information and outreach. Commissioner Eric Hufnagel said staff had dispelled some misconceptions and recommended a frequently asked questions document for business owners; Commissioner Heather Hanover said a roundabout could be a nice entrance to the city. The mayor said the city will share drawings and FAQs as they become available.
