How so? We travel it every year on our trip to Florida. Also going to the SEC Baseball tournament in May.

Take 23 south from Brighton, it merges right back into 75 by Toledo. 75 just north of the Ohio border is horrible.
Hope they get it fixed up right for you.🍺

All fixed the same day. We take I69 to Ft. Wayne then take a very nice road 30 or 33 east from there to 75 then connects near Lima. Not looking at map right now. But saves 50 miles instead of 23 and don’t have to mess with Ann Arbor.
The cost was $600 to fix it right and they said some of the screws was rusty so had been broken for awhile.
