If you have traveled US 23 between Brighton and Ann Arbor during rush hour you have probably been stuck in traffic. Special lanes will open in this area soon to help with traffic flow. MDOT hopes to begin using the "flex rout" sometime this week. With the "flex rout" the median shoulder lanes will be opened and closed during peak traffic times to add an extra lane. With this area of traffic being Michigan's most congested traffic area outside Metro Detroit, I'm glad they are trying new things to help everyone get where they are trying to go.
