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/

🎉 Trail repair work has begun at the Rochester Washout! The city expects it'll take about 3 months to complete the repairs.

The work crew is using the trail from Letica Trailhead for heavy equipment access. It is an active construction zone and closed for the duration of repairs. This unfortunately includes access from Bloomer Park. Check out our interactive map for closure details and alternate routes. https://www.clintonrivertrail.org/interactivemap
