Some new stores and restaurants are coming to Port Huron Township. Supervisor Bob Lewandowski, speaking to WPHM earlier this week, says a discount store called Ollie’s Bargain Outlet will moving into the Kroger plaza on 24th street. Ollie’s is one of the largest retailers of closeout merchandise and has 318 locations nationwide. Lewandowski also says a couple of new restaurants will soon be calling the township home. A Tropical Smoothie Cafe will be moving in to a location on 24th Street, and the former Loxton’s Restaurant on Lapeer Road becoming home to a new Mediterranean restaurant called Kabob. Lewandowski says the township continues to market the potential redevelopment of the former K-mart store on 32nd street and adds that the Port Huron Township’s commercial district continues to see growth.

Port Huron Township is also welcoming in road construction season, with several projects slated to take place this summer. Supervisor Bob Lewandowski, speaking to our Paul Miller this week, says a section of Dove Road just east of Range to Michigan Road in Port Huron Township will be resurfaced starting next month. He adds that the intersection of Range and Dove will not be included in this year’s project. Instead, the intersection is slated to be overhauled next year and replaced with a roundabout. Lewandowski also says Michigan Road both immediately north and south of Lapeer will be re-worked to add an additional turning lane.
