The previous top project on the Road Commissionâs list was Marshall Road between State Street and Jonesville Road but that work has been pushed back to the summer of 2022 after construction on the new Branch County Jail is done. Local funding will be used by the Road Commission after the jail construction is complete.
The meeting was held so that local officials and interested citizens can provide input on the allocation of federal funds for use on eligible transportation projects in the area for fiscal year 2021. The Small Urban program provides federal Surface Transportation Program dollars to cities, villages, transit agencies and road commissions which are serving urban areas with populations between 5,000 and 50,000.
