HB 4950 Michigan House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Transportation: funds; distribution of funds; modify. Amends secs. 5a, 10, 11, 11h, 12, 13, 14, 15 & 20a of 1951 PA 51 (MCL 247.655a et seq.) & repeals sec. 12b of 1951 PA 51 (MCL 247.662b).

HB 4950 modifies Michigan's transportation funding rules to clarify how counties can designate certain roads as "seasonal county roads" (closed November through April). It requires counties to hold public hearings with specific notice periods before designating such roads, maintain public maps showing closure dates, and place signage. The bill directly affects county road commissions (who implement the system), residents living near seasonal roads (who may face access changes), and local governments (as seasonal roads are excluded from snow removal and road maintenance funds under sections 12a and 12b). These changes ensure consistent application of seasonal road rules while adjusting fund distribution for affected roads.
