8/26/14 - A sidewalk construction project designed to add safety and enhance walkability in the village area of Hartland Township is getting underway. There are several sections of sidewalk in the village that officials say have become hazardous and those will be the first priority. Construction got underway this week and is projected to be complete in early September. In addition to the creation of a new sidewalk connecting Hartland Road and Creekside Elementary School in front of the Hartland Post Office, the project also includes nearly 600 linear feet of other improvements. A press release from the township states that additional improvements will be made in subsequent phases, many of which will require that the Livingston County Drain Commission first address issues in the area. The Hartland Township Board earlier approved up to $45,000 for the village sidewalk improvements and application submissions for state and federal grants to assist are said to be ongoing. A map of the phase one improvements is available for viewing on the Hartland Township website, as well as the attachment below. (JM)
