Key takeaway This project aims to improve a busy intersection where multiple roads meet.
A federal funding opportunity is supporting a safety project in Midland County. This project aims to improve a busy intersection where multiple roads meet. 5 miles from downtown Midland.

Further details about the project can be found through local news sources, including information about the proposed design and improvements to be made.
