Apple Avenue in Muskegon remains closed through 2026

Apple Avenue in Muskegon, Michigan, is set to remain largely closed through 2026 as the Michigan Department of Transportation reconstructs the M-46 corridor. The closure began Monday, Aug. 10, and currently spans from Getty Avenue to Creston Avenue, with additional closure from Getty Street to Muskegon Avenue expected to last for the rest of the year. MDOT is investing about $18.6 million to rebuild more than two miles from Muskegon Avenue to Home Street, including asphalt resurfacing, storm sewer work, curb and gutter, sidewalks, sanitary sewer and a water main. The project will also shift the road from four lanes to three lanes with a dedicated left-turn lane and includes traffic-calming at intersections, while through-traffic is detoured.
