DETROIT-About $444 million in private-sector investments, including numerous new commercial developments, are being assisted by road improvements recently approved by state officials. The Michigan Department of Transportation will fund more than half of $10.4 million in local road work needed to attract jobs to the state and fuel economic growth.

Local matches will provide the rest of the money.

MDOT and the Michigan Economic Development Corporation selected five projects in Gladwin, Mackinac, Oakland, Tuscola and Wayne counties. The improvements will help accommodate increased traffic and provide more efficient commercial routes for 11 expanding private firms, including Compuware, which is constructing a new $350-million headquarters in Downtown Detroit.
