Westbound drivers who wish to avoid Warren Avenue construction may take Lonyo south to Michigan or Ford Road (there may still be construction on Ford Road as well) travel west to Schaefer, or Southfield and back north to westbound Warren Avenue.    

 

Eastbound drivers who wish to avoid Warren Avenue construction may take Southfield or Schaefer south to Ford Road or Michigan Avenue (there may still be construction on Ford Road), travel east to Lonyo and north back to Warren Avenue.   

 

These routes may not be the best alternatives depending on which stage of construction is in progress on Warren Avenue.  It may be possible to use Wyoming as a north/south street depending on the progress of construction.
