The Trail South of I-94
MDOT is making progress toward financing the trail to Huron River Dr and the entrance to Willow Metro Park. We could possibly see work start next summer.
MDOT has secured financing to fix the railroad tracks on the trail along Northline Rd.
There are many trail users who will love to see this approximately 6 mile extension happen, so let’s hope that things continue to move smoothly.
We will continue to post updates here.

July Workdays
We have scheduled two workdays this month, one July 12 and the other July 26. Both are from 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm. Come help out, even if it is for a few minutes. Many hands will mean more of the trail gets cleaned up, which makes it more enjoyable for us all. Click on “Cleanup Flyer” below for all the details.
