Abstract:This case study discusses virtual public involvement (VPI) strategies implemented by the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) to help meet National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) public hearing requirements for the Interstate (I)-375 Improvement Project. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) typically requires that agencies hold in-person public hearings, in accordance with 23 U.S. Code (U.S.C.) § 128. MDOT held a virtual comment session and in-person public hearing in January 2021. MDOT worked to ensure that access to the virtual comment session would be as easy as possible for underserved populations in the project area.
