The patchwork of Michigan’s roads, bridges, water systems and more that make up the state’s infrastructure system is incredibly complex and frequently changing.

Funding, inspection and maintenance of various pieces of infrastructure comes from a wide variety of different sources at the state and federal level, which makes comprehensive, up-to-date data hard to track in some cases.

This map tracks the performance rating and accessibility of Michigan’s major systems of infrastructure: roads, bridges, dams, water and broadband, as rated by federal and state organizations.
