With the passage of the $1.2T federal infrastructure law, the City of Detroit has lined up a $2.5B wish list according to this Free Press article. The article calls it "Detroit's priority wish list" but it is not clear if this is the exact order of priority. For instance I would not think this I-375 conversion would top the list. Noticeably absent is mention of drainage repair that is at the heart of Eastside basement flooding.
