Story Highlights • Multiple roads in Cadillac, including North Boulevard, Sunset Lane and a section of Chestnut Street remain closed because city officials are concerned about water saturation underneath the surface that could cause additional damage from heavy vehicle traffic. • Officials say materials forming the foundation of the roadways could be moved around or displaced, creating structural weaknesses that could develop into surface damage if they’re opened too early. • Roads will be monitored closely in the coming weeks to determine when it’s appropriate to reopen them.
