Lyon St. Road Construction Project

As a result of road construction beginning Monday, May 5, visitors to the Spectrum Health Medical Center, particularly Helen DeVos Children’s Hospital, may want to plan extra travel time. The City of Grand Rapids will be doing utility work on Lyon Street between Barclay and Division Avenues from May 5 through August 8 which could impact access to the Ransom Street entrance.

Spectrum Health is a not-for-profit health system in West Michigan that offers a full continuum of care through its seven hospitals, more than 140 service sites and 560,000-member health plan, Priority Health.  Spectrum Health’s 14,000 employees, 1,500 medical staff members and 2,000 volunteers are committed to delivering the highest quality care to those in medical need.  The organization provided $98.6 million in community benefit during its 2007 fiscal year.
