County Road Association of Michigan

What is CRAM?

The County Road Association of Michigan is composed of, and represents, Michigan's eighty-three county road agencies. The Association promotes higher efficiency in the operation of Michigan's county road systems through the cooperative efforts of the member county road agencies. This purpose is accomplished by fostering the education of the membership and general public in relation to county road matters; conducting annual meetings and conferences, schools and study courses related to county road matters; maintaining a central bureau of information and research for the collection, analysis and dissemination of information pertinent to county road matters through the publication and circulation of bulletins, papers and articles on topics of interest and benefit to the membership; encouraging legislation beneficial to Michigan's county road agencies and the traveling public; and furnishing consultant services and advice on all phases of county road activities in order to promote such efficiency.
