*Governor Whitmer Announces Funding to Fix the Damn Local Roads in Villages and Small Cities Across the State *
*LANSING, Mich.* – Today, Governor Gretchen Whitmer announced 47 villages and cities across the state with populations less than 10,000 will receive road funding grants totaling $8 million, awarded through the Community Service Infrastructure Fund (CSIF) Category B program. Established by the state Legislature in 2018, the CSIF is administered by the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) and serves as a stop-gap program to help fund road projects in small communities. Successful projects were selected, in part, because they are paired with planned infrastructure work, coordinated with other road agencies, focused on extending the useful life of the road, and had limited funding sources for road improvements.
"These grants will help communities across Michigan fix local roads faster to save drivers time and money," said *Governor Whitmer*. "Since I took office, Michigan has fixed 20,000 lane miles of road and 1,400 bridges while supporting over 100,000 jobs, and today’s funding will add to that total. Let’s keep working together to fix the damn roads so people can go to work, drop their kids off at school, and run errands without blowing a tire or cracking an axle. Let’s get this done to make a real difference in people’s lives."
Grant awards range from $46,000 to $250,000 for road resurfacing, culvert replacement, pavement crack sealing, preventative maintenance, and ancillary stormwater management measures.

Enacted in 1987 and reauthorized in 1993, the Transportation Economic Development Fund (TEDF) helps finance highway, road and street projects that are critical to the movement of people and products, and for getting workers to their jobs, materials to growers and manufacturers, and finished goods to consumers. TEDF "Category B," or the "Community Service Infrastructure Fund," was enacted in 2018 and provided $3 million per year through Fiscal Year 2023 to be allocated for road improvements in cities and villages with a population of 10,000 or fewer. In 2023, legislators approved a supplemental appropriation in the amount of $25 million to be granted over three years.
For the FY2024 program, applications were received totaling $20 million in requests. The recommended grants, totaling $8 million will be matched with $13 million (61 percent) in other funds committed by local agencies.
