  • Mackinac Bridge Enters the Busy Season for Traffic and for Maintenance Work
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE TUESDAY, MAY 25, 2021 CONTACT: Kim Nowack, Mackinac Bridge Authority, 906-643-7600 Mackinac Bridge enters the busy season for traffic and for maintenance work May 25, 2021 -- As traffic picks up on the Mackinac Bridge for the traditional increase in warmer season travel, so does the work required to maintain this engineering icon. Contractor Seaway Painting is wrapping up five seasons devoted to stripping and repainting the bridge's twin ivory towers. At the same time, the Mackinac Bridge Authority's (MBA) team of dedicated maintenance staff is out on the bridge deck, replacing pieces of the original decking, repairing deck joints, and cleaning off a winter's worth of grit tracked onto the bridge. "Like with road work and maintenance anywhere else, the season for taking care of the Mackinac Bridge coincides with the peak of tourism travel in northern Michigan," said MBA Executive Secretary Kim Nowack. "We realize the views of the Straits of Mackinac are tempting, but we need customers to focus their attention on driving, especially when passing work zones on the bridge." Delays for work on the bridge are generally minimal, as most lane closures are removed for holidays and peak traffic periods, but in some cases those lane closures must remain in place even when traffic picks up. "We're all in a hurry to get where we're going, particularly when we're on vacation, but it's critically important that drivers slow down and set aside any distractions when they are passing through one of our work zones," Nowack said.
