OVID TOWNSHIP, MI (WTVB) – Drivers south of Coldwater will have to take a detour on one of Branch County’s most traveled roads for at least the next three months.
A portion of South Angola Road, also known as Old U.S. 27, in Ovid Township closed on Monday as work began to replace the bridge over the Coldwater River.
South Angola Road is closed between Central and Paradine Roads. Traffic is being detoured onto Central, Paradine and Fillmore Roads.
Branch County Road Commission Manager Jay Miller says the $1.3 million project is scheduled to finish by the end of October. The local contribution is just under $923,000 which Miller says is coming through grants.
Trucks are being encouraged to use I-69 during the bridge work.
