The Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) is holding a series of 10 meetings to encourage public comment on future road and bridge projects throughout Michigan. MDOT has scheduled meetings from Escanaba to Adrian from July 13 to July 22 regarding MDOT's reduced draft State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). The meetings will provide residents of rural communities with an opportunity to discuss a preliminary list of projects for the 2011-2014 fiscal years with local MDOT planners and engineers. A list of the projects is available online at www.michigan.gov/stip.  Please review the attached file for meeting details .

The department is strongly encouraging local community input at this stage of the process, especially for trunk line projects located within municipal boundaries.  Please let me know if you have any questions.
