The GLCVB has launched a summer campaign showcasing the many attractions and things to do in the Capital region. The campaign invites residents and visitors to come enjoy everything in their own backyards and by supporting the local tourism industry, we can keep Greater Lansing great! Help us spread the word as the campaign runs all summer.

After months of research and preparation we’re excited to be entering the creative development phase for our rebrand. Stay tuned for a new look and name for the Greater Lansing Convention and Visitors Bureau and Greater Lansing Sports Authority! Community survey feedback and stakeholder interviews were a key part of our rebranding efforts, so thank you to everyone who took the time to share opinions about the Lansing area. We look forward to sharing it with you soon!

The City of Lansing Public Service Department announces that starting in the fall of 2023, Michigan Avenue between Pennsylvania Avenue and Clippert Street will undergo construction for a roadway rehabilitation project. The project will require closures of Michigan Avenue from Pennsylvania Avenue to Clippert Street, but project phasing has not been finalized. The project is expected to last until approximately late 2024. The $11.62 million project will include road reconstruction and reconfiguration, sidewalk replacement, traffic signal modernization, and upgrades to utilities such as sewer and water main work. In addition, one way bicycle tracks will be added adjacent to the sidewalk on both sides of Michigan Avenue to promote a safer environment for bicyclists. As part of the design, Michigan Avenue will be reconfigured from five lanes to four lanes, with two westbound traffic lanes, a center turn lane, and one eastbound traffic lane. View Map.
