Michigan Department Of Transportation Continues Focus On Road Safety

This year, the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) worked to increase safety on highways in the Upper Peninsula with projects building roundabouts, wider shoulders, roadway delineators, and Michigan Lefts, among other safety features.

MDOT safety projects are part of a larger Toward Zero Deaths effort.

Since 2010, MDOT has collaborated statewide with law enforcement officials and first responders to promote this important national highway safety strategy.

MDOT's Superior Region, which encompasses the entire U.P., has been focusing safety concerns through specific road projects and system-wide improvements each year.
