Michigan Needs A Central Highway To Lure Summer Migration
The author argues for a central Michigan highway to boost accessibility and attract summer residents. He cites the state’s northern climate, Great Lakes cooling effect, and population density in the north temperate zone as reasons Michigan should expand interior development to capture interstate and cross country migrants seeking salubrious summers. The piece predicts a Michigan boom once a main artery is built, with emphasis on leveraging southern flows through enhanced northward accessibility.
