LENAWEE CO. — The Lenawee County Road Commission is reviewing long-term safety options at high-risk intersections following reports of angle crashes on rural routes.

Officials say the focus is on preventing severe injuries when drivers pull into oncoming traffic.

Managing Director Scott Merillat explains the goal and what could come next.

Merillat says the challenge isn’t just engineering — it’s driver behavior.

The Road Commission will continue monitoring crash data to determine if roundabout installation becomes necessary at more intersections.
