As of February 1^st MDOT has suspended the use of the force account by local agencies on federally funded projects for 90 days. MDOT will be conducting a review process which will include the Michigan Muncipal League during the 90 day period. New program guidance documents, eligibility criteria, and oversight processes are the expected outcome of the process review. The force account program status will be assessed at the conclusion of the process review session. If you are interested in taking part in any of the local agency force account workshops please contact Jason Mancini.
