Gov. Whitmer Continues to Fix the Damn Roads with Projects in Berrien, Livingston, and Montcalm Counties Starting This Week
In 2022, Gov. Whitmer is making the largest investment in state roads and bridges in Michigan’s history
LANSING, Mich. – Today, Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced that major road projects are expected to begin this week in Berrien, Livingston, and Montcalm counties. The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) projects include the next phase of work for the I-94 Rebuilding Michigan program between Red Arrow Highway and Britain Avenue, the Southbound US-23 repair project in Livingston County and the M-66 improvement project in Montcalm County. These investments are expected to support 254 jobs.
“Across Michigan, we are fixing the damn roads to save drivers time and money. These investments in Berrien, Livingston, and Montcalm counties will support 254 jobs and help drivers go to work, drop their kids off at school, and run errands safely,” said Governor Whitmer. “Since I took office through the end of 2022, we will have invested 70% more in our roads than the previous four years to fix over 16,000 lane miles of road and 1,200 bridges, supporting nearly 89,000 jobs. Both my Rebuilding Michigan Plan and the bipartisan Building Michigan Together Plan are helping us build safe, reliable infrastructure that makes a difference for families and small business across the state. I hope you all like orange because you’ll be seeing a lot of cones and barrels this summer. I’m proud of what we have accomplished, so let’s keep moving dirt and getting it done."
Next Phase of Work for the I-94 Rebuilding Michigan Project in Berrien County
MDOT is continuing prep work for the I-94 Rebuilding Michigan program between Red Arrow Highway and Britain Avenue in 2023 and 2024. Work this year is a $7.3 million investment that includes pavement repairs on 8.8 miles of I-94 from Puetz Road to Britain Avenue, widening the eastbound I-94 bridge over Pipestone Road, and building median crossovers and emergency pull-offs on I-94. Based on economic modeling, this investment is expected to support nearly 93 jobs.
This work is part of Governor Whitmer’s Rebuilding Michigan program to rebuild the state highways and bridges that are critical to the state's economy and carry the most traffic. The investment strategy is aimed at fixes that result in longer useful lives and improves the condition of the state's infrastructure
