Local roads are horrendous. Visitors from CA were shocked at how bad the roads were here and their perception of AA and Michigan was consequently downgraded. This is not a new phenomenon; the road surfaces have been in a state of decline for many years. We should be ashamed of squandering the relative prosperity of the past few decades and not investing enough in our infrastructure. I-94 and Saline-Ann Arbor is horrific, reminiscent of a war zone. Shame, shame, shame.

W. Liberty between I94 & Wagner/Lakeview... right at Scio Ridge was torn up for a long long time and now... What... A year and a 1/2 after they finished the project the road looks like a war zone... How about fixing it right the first time. - Furthermore: I don't know whom is the responsible party for highway entrance ramps but the one at A2 Saline Rd. for the East bound I94 entrance ramp is a embarrassment... A shameful one and the fact that it's been that way for way over a decade is also shameful!
