For years, MDOT has been working on a plan to modernize I-94 on the 6.7-mile stretch in Detroit between I-96 and Conner Avenue. In a recently released draft of its Environmental Impact Statement, which details how the project would affect residents, MDOT lays out its latest plans for the I-94 overhaul. In particular, residents didnt like the widening of I-94s footprint, which would result in too many building relocations, and the elimination of pedestrian bridges. And in more positive news for cyclists and pedestrians, most non-motorized bridges will not only be kept, but converted into complete street bridges. Three new pedestrian bridges will even be added, including one at Connor Avenue for the Iron Belle Trail, part of Michigans 2,000-mile non-motorized trail network.
