Whitmer did a rare scrum with reporters today. 'I want to be clear: The budget is not done until the roads are done as well.' #mileg

On Tuesday, April 18th, the Institute for Public Policy and Social Research at Michigan State University (IPPSR) hosted a public forum that addressed the crisis of Michigan's crumbling infrastructure and what the state can do to fix the problem.

Today is the start of National Work Zone Awareness Week! Across Michigan, you’ll see road workers fixing roads and bridges, and we all have a role to play in keeping them safe. When traveling through a work zone, remember to slow down, stay alert, and drive safe-it saves lives.

It’s that time of the year again… construction season!
Today, we’re on I-96 where crews are rebuilding 12 miles of highway.
Together, we're going to keep fixing our infrastructure, improving quality of life for families, and supporting good-paying jobs along the way.

Happy Monday and the start of a warm week. More construction starting this week, remember to watch the speed limit in those zones, be courteous to other drivers and buckle up! Have a great day! #DriveMichiganSafely
ALT Work zones are a sign to slow down!

#RoadFactTuesday The highest number of Michigan work zone crashes occur when lanes are closed. The 2nd and 3rd highest number of crashes occur when there is work on the shoulder or median and lane shifts. YOU can make a difference. Slow down. Pay attention. Be patient.

Congrats Michiganders, you’ve braved another winter, and it’s finally the first day of Spring!
As the weather gets warmer and days grow longer, you'll be seeing more of Michigan’s unofficial state flower on our roads.
🚧 So slow down, cause: 🚧

It's no secret that our roads are crumbling. We must invest nearly $4 billion annually to keep them at their current state.

Chronically underfunding and under-maintaining roads leads to higher annual expenses for maintaining and repairing vehicles in Michigan. And the bill for the average Michigan motorist — already one of the nation's highest — is about to rise exponentially. crainsdetroit.com/voices-cha…

National Work Zone Awareness Week is a reminder that we all have roles to play in keeping workers safe. We’ve lost too many of our fellow Michiganders to crashes. This is preventable: drive safe, work safe, save lives. We should aspire to bring work zone crashes & deaths to zero.

The Michigan Infrastructure and Transportation Association announced the launch of a new campaign to highlight those working to fix #infrastructure across Michigan, with the limited resources available to do so.
