$1.2 million in transportation enhancements funded with federal stimulus funds will flow to three
streetscape updates in Lansing, Webberville and Eaton Rapids.
According to excerpts from the article:
The projects were announced Thursday by Lt. Gov. John Cherry. Some

townships, villages, and road commissions to make improvements that
enrich communities and create jobs," state transportation Director Kirk
T. Steudle said in a press release.
