The Problem

Why This Matters

Brockman Road in Ann Arbor has deteriorated to a level that is no longer just an inconvenience — it is a genuine safety hazard. Residents have watched the conditions worsen year after year with little to no action from the City.

From massive potholes that damage vehicles and risk blowouts, to crumbled pavement edges that endanger cyclists and pedestrians, the road is a testament to years of neglect. Enough is enough.

This is a neighborhood road used daily by families, commuters, school buses, and emergency vehicles. It deserves to be safe.

  • ⚠
    Severe Pothole Damage Deep craters causing costly vehicle damage and dangerous driving conditions year-round.
  • 🚗
    Pavement Failure Widespread surface cracking, heaving, and edge crumbling across the full stretch of road.
  • 🚑
    Emergency Access Risk Conditions that could slow or impede emergency vehicle response in a time-critical situation.
  • 🚲
    Pedestrian & Cyclist Hazard No safe passage for non-motorized residents navigating the broken edges and uneven surfaces.
Community Petition

Add Your Voice

We, the undersigned residents, neighbors, and community members of Ann Arbor, Michigan, formally demand that the City of Ann Arbor take immediate, substantive action to address the dangerous and long-neglected condition of Brockman Road.

The current state of the road is unacceptable and incompatible with a community that prides itself on livability, safety, and quality public infrastructure. We are calling on the Mayor, City Council, and the City's Public Services Department to act now — not next budget cycle, not next year.

Our Demands

  1. Conduct an immediate independent engineering assessment of Brockman Road's condition and publish the findings publicly.
  2. Prioritize Brockman Road for full repaving in the next capital improvement budget cycle.
  3. Provide residents with a concrete, funded, and time-bound repaving plan within 90 days.
  4. In the interim, implement emergency pothole patching within 30 days to reduce immediate safety risks.
