Wayne County, MI – Drivers in southern Michigan are facing delays today after a crash forced the temporary closure of Steiner Road between Irvin Road and Cleveland Road, according to an alert issued Wednesday morning by the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office.
According to the Sheriff’s Office, deputies responded to a reported accident along the stretch of Steiner Road shortly before the notice was issued. The roadway is currently blocked in both directions as emergency crews work the scene and assess damage. Officials did not immediately release information on potential injuries or how long the closure is expected to last.
The Sheriff’s Office also warned motorists about hazardous travel conditions in the area, noting that icy patches have formed on local roads as temperatures dropped early Wednesday. “Drive safe and use caution due to icy conditions,” the alert stated.
The impacted section of Steiner Road runs near rural residential areas in Wayne County and is frequently used by commuters traveling toward nearby communities and major connectors. Drivers should expect delays and consider alternate routes until the roadway reopens.
Authorities are asking residents to reduce speeds, allow extra stopping distance, and remain alert for emergency vehicles in the area. Additional updates may be released as conditions change or once the roadway is cleared.
