🚨 TRAFFIC ALERT – LUDINGTON ST. & 14TH ST. 🚨

Attention Escanaba residents and visitors:

The traffic signal at the intersection of Ludington Street and 14th Street has been changed to a flashing red signal, which means the intersection is operating as a three-way stop.

Please use caution when approaching the intersection, come to a complete stop, and yield the right-of-way as required.

This traffic pattern is expected to remain in place for approximately one month, or until the intersection is closed for upcoming construction.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work through these improvements. Please drive safely and allow extra time when traveling through the area.
