CURRENT PROJECTS

The TIP invests millions of dollars into our region’s transportation infrastructure over a 4-year cycle to improve roads, public transit, and bicycle paths. We're currently implementing fiscal year 2023-2026 projects and have developed a new TIP for 2026-2029.

Nearly a century after it first rolled off the line at Lansing’s REO Motor Car Company, a rare 97-year-old bus is beginning a remarkable new journey, one that will bring history home. We've launched an ambitious restoration effort to return the last known version of this bus model to its former glory!

Having completed a feasibility plan to identify routes that will connect our region’s trail system and other recreational amenities to major trails in the state, we’ve now initiated a $2.5 million pilot project to further analyze and prepare these routes for future grants!

Embark on a virtual exploration of over 140 miles of hiking, biking, and water trails — including the Lansing River Trail, Middle Grand River Water Trail, Clinton-Ionia-Shiawassee Trail, and more — with our 360° tour of the region's major trail routes!  Use our Explorer to  plan your trip today.

This long-range plan sets a vision and funding strategy for investing in projects that will meet our transportation needs over the next 25 years. We’re currently implementing our 2045 MTP and updating it to extend its planning horizon to 2050!

We're conducting a study to analyze ways to improve access to the northern East Lansing/ southern Clinton County area and surrounding local road and freeway systems. The study will examine current transportation needs and changing travel patterns in the area.

Every five years, we work with local and state agencies to coordinate a regionwide flyover, providing our counties, local municipalities, and public utilities with aerial data and photography. This geospatial orthoimagery helps our partner communities monitor, map, and plan for land use, infrastructure, transportation, and other needs.

Michigan Avenue connects world-class talent at Michigan State University in East Lansing to our State Capitol in Lansing, where decisions about the lives of Michiganders are made every day. This is Michigan's Avenue, and it's time we have a shared, unified vision for it.

Following the completion of

HousingDrives, a data assessment of the trends and barriers of the housing market in Clinton, Eaton, and Ingham counties, we developed a 5-year action plan and are coordinating the South Central Regional Housing Partnership to implement its goals.

We recently completed an update to the CEDS, which is our region’s strategic blueprint and action plan for promoting economic prosperity. Its goals focus on improving transportation and infrastructure, culture and lifestyle, and education and talent.

A public survey is conducted every six years to determine the effectiveness of environmental education campaigns, identify knowledge gaps, and guide the Greater Lansing Regional Committee for Stormwater Management's outreach activities. The results are in!
