We love connecting communities via active transportation! The connections to the CRT included in this plan help weave the Riverwalk Pathway and nearby business, services, and housing into a larger regional network.

The southern portion of River Woods Park will be closed starting Tuesday, May 26th, for the first phase of the Riverwalk Pathway plan. Read more about the project on our blog at https://www.auburnhills.org/connecting-our-community-the-auburn-hills-riverwalk-pathway/
