Planning activites at the Road Commission seek to answer the larger and more proactive question of what can be done to establish the most efficient and safe road network that best upholds community social, economic and environmental values.
The Washtenaw County Road Commission staff is engaged in four basic planning tasks. These include:
- Estimating future demand for road facilities.
- Proposing and evaluating alternative ways to respond.
- Calculating the costs of the Road Commission’s plans and policies
- Evaluation road options and recommending appropriate solutions.
