Commuting through downtown Grand Rapids just got trickier this week—if you usually take the ramp from northbound US-131 to eastbound I-196, you’ll need a new route. That ramp is closed for maintenance and won’t reopen until Thursday afternoon, according to MDOT. Expect some extra traffic and delays around the Ford Freeway interchange. If you’re heading that way, it might be smart to leave a little earlier or try an alternate path. Anyone else already feeling the impact?
