Additional Funding from the Rebuilding Michigan Bond Program

During the March 2026 meeting of the Michigan State Transportation Commission, the Commission approved an updated list of projects, and their budgets for the $3.5 billion Rebuilding Michigan bond program.
 
As a result of favorable market conditions, the bond sale generated approximately $4.3 billion in total revenue, creating an additional $800 million beyond the original program amount. These additional funds will be reinvested into Michigan’s transportation system to further strengthen and accelerate critical infrastructure improvements.
 
MAA has learned that this additional funding will help offset costs for projects already identified under the Rebuilding Michigan bond program, freeing up State Trunkline Fund (STF) dollars that were originally allocated to support those projects. These freed-up STF funds can now be redirected to advance additional MDOT projects identified in the department’s Five-Year Transportation Program, while also allowing for new priority projects to move forward across the state.

The Rebuilding Michigan program continues to demonstrate how strategic bonding can maximize infrastructure investment. By leveraging favorable financing conditions, the state is able to deliver more projects, accelerate improvements, and support economic growth.
 
For the aggregates industry, this additional investment represents continued opportunity and reinforces the importance of maintaining a strong, reliable supply of materials to support Michigan’s infrastructure needs.
