Division Avenue Reconstruction

Division Avenue Reconstruction

In 2014, Grand Rapids voters established the Vital Streets fund. This fund dedicates its focus to improving our street conditions. The Division Avenue project from Detroit to Burton is funded by Vital Streets. This project is expected to begin in 2027.
