A forum participant reported that about four miles of M-66 south of Charlevoix would be resurfaced beginning August 26, 2013. On August 28, the same thread reported backups of up to 15 minutes, prompting at least one island traveler to choose a different route.

This is useful evidence of a temporary mainland access condition affecting Beaver Island travelers. It is not an official construction record and does not establish the project’s final scope or completion.
