The committee is made up of representatives of the Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC), the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT), SMART (the suburban bus system) and all communities in the county.

            During the meeting, the committee will discuss the distribution of an additional $8.2 million provided through the federal government’s Highway Infrastructure Program (HIP) and the 2021 COVID-Relief HIP. Funds will be allocated for projects beginning in 2022.   

Projects are selected based on an objective point system. All projects that are submitted are rated and ranked based on the point system, which takes into account safety considerations, traffic volumes, traffic operations, cost and other factors.
