The City of Kentwood announced Friday, Oct. 9, that beginning at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, Oct. 13, lane closures will be in place at the intersection of 44th Street SE and Breton Avenue SE through the following weekend while a contractor makes concrete pavement repairs.

According to the city statement, the work will require closures of east and westbound 44th Street lanes approaching the intersection, as well as one northbound lane on Breton Avenue.

“Drivers are encouraged to plan ahead and seek an alternate route,” according to the statement. “Northbound Breton Avenue traffic to eastbound 44th Street will be detoured through the intersection, then south back on Breton to westbound 44th Street to eastbound 44th Street.”

Weather permitting, all lanes are expected to reopen by 7 a.m. on Monday, Oct. 19.
