The Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC), in partnership with Royal Oak and the Village of Beverly Hills, will host a public information meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 18, about the planned 2023 roundabout construction at the Greenfield Road/Normandy Road/Beverly Road intersection on the border of the two communities.
The meeting is from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m. at the Royal Oak Senior Center, 3500 Marais Avenue, in Royal Oak. The meeting will be open-house format -- there will be no formal presentations. RCOC staff will be present to answer questions throughout the meeting.
The approximately $1.7 million project is funded by the City of Royal Oak, the Village of Beverly Hills, RCOC and Oakland County general government (through the Tri-Party Program).
The project includes:
- Construction of a “compact” one-lane roundabout at the Greenfield/Normandy/Beverly intersection.
- Reconstruction of .19 miles of Greenfield and Normandy roads.
- Placement of new curbs and gutters in the vicinity of the intersection.
- Minor drainage improvements.
- Construction of new concrete sidewalks along portions of Greenfield and Normandy roads.
- Permanent closure of Beverly Ct. at Greenfield Road in Royal Oak.
Construction is expected to start in the spring of 2023, with the intersection closing to traffic. Access to homes and businesses within the construction zone will be maintained during the work. The project will conclude in the late summer of 2023.
The detour routes for through traffic:
- Greenfield Road traffic detour will be 13 Mile Road to Woodward Ave. (M-1) to 14 Mile Road, back to Greenfield Road and vice versa.
- Westbound Normandy Road traffic: Normandy Road to Woodward Ave. (M-1) to 14 Mile Road to Southfield Road to Beverly Road.
