Clean Cities
The West Michigan Strategic Alliance received a $24,500 matching grant to establish a Clean Cities Coalition. The focus of the regional initiative will be developing local markets for alternative transportation fuels, refueling sites and clean vehicle technologies and supporting alternative fuel corridor growth in west Michigan.
WMSA plans to use the grant to support development of Alternative Fuel Corridors along I-96 between Grand Rapids and Muskegon and I-196 between Grand Rapids and Holland. These corridors will include both alternative fuel infrastructure and truck stops with idle reduction technologies.
