While Michigan does have a CSS program, our efforts to document our procedures are just beginning. MDOT has been practicing many concepts of CSS in its program development. The program is still in development; however we have many examples where the CSS concepts have worked.

The CSS program was enacted through an Executive Directive.
Other Public Involvement Techniques:
MDOT staff, as part of our rolling 5 Year Plan development, meet with local communities to discuss future projects. MDOTﾒs decentralized structure also facilitates significant public involvement as our offices are located throughout the state and are connected to the local communities.
CSS Training:
MDOT is currently developing a training program. As of now, 30 MDOT staff members have been trained.
