​Governor Whitmer Continues to Fix the Damn Roads with Projects Starting Next Week in Four Counties

Picture
​LANSING, Mich. — Today, Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced that the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) will begin multiple road and bridge repair projects next week in four counties including resurfacing work on M-28 in Chippewa County, rebuilding the I-94 Dearing Road exit ramp in Jackson County, rebuilding the I-96 exit ramp to Novi Road in Oakland County, and repairing the Bellevue Road on ramp to US-127 in Ingham County. Based on economic modeling, these investments are expected to support 6,325 jobs.  

 

“Across Michigan, we are moving dirt and fixing the damn roads to drive economic activity, help Michiganders go to work, drop their kids off at school, and run errands safely,” said Governor Whitmer. “Through the end of this construction season, we will have fixed, repaired, or replaced nearly 20,000 lane miles of state-owned roads and 1,400 bridges since I took office, supporting 89,000 jobs without raising taxes by a dime. Let’s roll up our sleeves and keep getting things done.”  

 

M-28 Resurfacing Project in Chippewa County 

The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) is investing about $4.3 million to resurface about six miles of M-28 from east of Raco to M-221 in Superior Township, Chippewa County. Work includes asphalt milling and resurfacing, guardrail, and pavement markings. Based on economic modeling, this investment is expected to support 52 jobs.

​Rebuilding Michigan’s Roads and Bridges  

By the end of this construction season, Michigan will have fixed nearly 20,000 lane miles of state-owned road and 1,400 bridges. Governor Whitmer is focused on rebuilding our roads and bridges with the right mix and materials, so they stay fixed, supporting 89,000 good-paying construction jobs along the way.  

 

These and future repairs are made possible by the Rebuilding Michigan plan, a five-year, $3.5 billion investment in our highways and bridges, and the bipartisan Building Michigan Together Plan, the largest one-time investment in Michigan's infrastructure in state history. These strategic investments in Michigan's infrastructure ensure that future Michiganders will have safer roads and bridges to run errands, travel, and strengthen the economy.
