DETROIT (WWJ) – More orange barrels are on the way — or, in the way.

The Michigan Department of Transportation on Monday released its list of projects for the upcoming road construction season. This year, MDOT has 113 repair projects on tap across the state, 21 of which are taking place in metro Detroit.

The biggest project is the I-75 Rouge River bridge reconstruction, along with work on Hall Road in Macomb County and replacing the Martin Luther King Jr. bridge over the Lodge Freeway in Detroit. Work also will begin on I-75 around the Square Lake Road interchange in Troy.
