‘We’re right on the edge’: Michigan county road agencies warn of fiscal cliff as funding stalls

County road agencies in Michigan are struggling with deteriorating infrastructure due to stalled road funding and declining gas tax revenue, exacerbated by more fuel-efficient and electric vehicles. The County Road Association of Michigan reports minimal progress in road improvements, highlighting the need for legislative action to address the funding gap. Officials from Oakland, Wayne, and Macomb counties emphasize the urgency for increased funding to prevent worsening road conditions, while exploring short-term fixes and alternative funding sources. Lawmakers are urged to act swiftly to implement a long-term solution.
