ALBION BRIDGE UPDATE

By Supervisor / February 24, 2026 /

Yay! Soon construction on replacement of the Albion Road Bridge will begin. Tentative start of tree cutting is scheduled for March 2026. With multi snow days and a little bit more winter weather than usual, it could be April. This project will be overseen by Jackson County Department of Transportation. Additional road repairs that are financed by the Concord Township Road Millage is the chip seal completion of Mann Road and our section of Pulaski Road. We have been told not to expect the State of Michigan local roads funding until the 2027 summer season.
