Project information:
MDOT has prepared an EA for the proposed I-94 CAV corridor project along 39.3 miles of I-94 from Ann Arbor-Saline Road in Ann Arbor to M-10 (Lodge Freeway) in Detroit. The purpose of the proposed CAV project is to improve the corridor with smart road technology, improve pavement conditions and operations, and equip the existing inside general-purpose lane with technology that enhances road operations and supports CAVs. Vehicles will be able to enter the lane through access points, which are breaks between physical separation that are at least 2,000 feet long to allow for merging.
