Welcome to the second volume and third season of Pavement
Digest. With the current rise in price of petroleumbased
products, everyone in the industry should take
interest in the informative article in this issue by Mike Nystrom,
Vice President of the Michigan Infrastructure & Transportation
Association. In “Pushing to Improve Michigan’s Roads,” Mike
explains state taxes on a gallon of gas and how it is distributed.
We also have a variety of projects highlighted in this issue: a reconstruction
project on “the Lodge” in Oakland County, a concrete
rebuild and unique concrete overlay on I-94 in St. Clair County,
a rebuild of I-75 in Oakland County, a resurface of I-75 in Wayne
County and a resurface of Gratiot Avenue in Macomb County.
