Construction Notice: West Bloomfield Trail Safety Crossings
Construction has begun on two hawk lights for the West Bloomfield Trail at Orchard Lake Road crossings #2 and #3 (between Long Lake Rd and Commerce Rd). Hawk lights are traffic lights with push button activation to stop traffic at the crossings to allow trail users to safely cross. This is phase one of the project and we will continue to update you as the project nears completion. The trail will remain open during phase one of the project but may experience short-term closures in future phases.
This project is being funded by WB Parks, WB Township, the City Of Orchard Lake, Oakland County and the Road Commission of Oakland County.
