GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. — State troopers worked to help the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) repair a sign that had been damaged by a vehicle in Grand Rapids.
Michigan State Police (MSP) took to Twitter on Tuesday morning, saying the sign in question is located on the Wealthy Street overpass.
The sign was likely hit by a tall vehicle topped with a layer of snow, authorities speculate.
We’re told the northbound lane on US-131 was temporarily closed, as was the Cherry Street exit and the on-ramp on Martin Luther King Jr. Street. All have since reopened.
