Improving Royal Oak

Construction Season Begins


Residents on affected streets will be mailed construction notices in the Spring prior to work beginning with detailed information on the project.

The city realizes construction will be an inconvenience and all efforts to expedite the work will be utilized to minimize traffic conflicts and access to various properties abutting the project. If you have questions you can contact the Engineering Division at 248.246.3260.
