I-75 isn't new infrastructure, obviously.

$1 billion is not a large sum when it comes to maintaining the most important route in Michigan, and the repairs have nothing to do with whether there's new sprawl.

And the improvements are only happening in older communities. It doesn't even reach M-59 [[which is already sprawl from 40 years ago).
