Several thousand attendees are expected in downtown Traverse City Saturday for the annual Halloween Walk, where they’ll find smiling merchants handing out candy and creative costumes galore. They’ll also likely run into areas where city sidewalks are closed due to construction, which reroutes pedestrians abruptly – and for those with mobility and visual impairment issues, sometimes dangerously – away from clear pathways. The Ticker looks at how those sidewalk closures happen, how long they’ll last, and how enforcement could soon increase to better protect pedestrians.

Drivers urged to stay alert as clocks fall back

MICHIGAN (WBUP/WJMN) — As Michiganders set their clocks back an hour this weekend, state officials are reminding drivers to use extra caution on the roads as darker evenings increase the risk for pedestrians and bicyclists. The Michigan Department of Transportation, Michigan State Police and Office of Highway Safety Planning are urging motorists to stay alert when daylight saving time ends on Nov. 1, bringing earlier sunsets and reduced visibility during peak travel hours. Transportation officials say the first hour after darkness falls is especially dangerous for people walking, biking, or using other personal mobility devices. Drivers are being encouraged to slow down, eliminate distractions, and watch carefully for pedestrians and cyclists. Michigan law also requires motorists to leave at least three feet of space when passing a bicyclist. “Road users need to be alert and eliminate distractions, slow down and fully focus on getting to their destination safely,” said State Transportation Director Bradley Wieferich. Officials are also reminding drivers that Michigan’s hands-free driving law prohibits manually using or holding a cellphone or other electronic device while operating a vehicle. The warning comes as research from the University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute shows pedestrians face a higher risk of serious

Road Commission Eyes Ambitious Plan for Boardman Crossings

Backed by the support of local leaders and elected representatives including U.S. Senators Gary Peters and Elissa Slotkin, the Grand Traverse County Road Commission (GTCRC) is taking a big swing to address four of its crossings along the Boardman River. GTCRC has applied for more than $47 million in federal funding to replace culverts on Supply, Brown Bridge, and South Airport roads with modern bridge structures – a potential game-changing opportunity to protect against future flooding impacts along the Boardman.
