Beginning Monday, August 21, a section of the north end of the Leelanau Trail will be closed for paving. The 2.2-mile stretch from the Suttons Bay village limits to Revold Road will be graveled, graded, and paved during the two-week closure.

There will be a marked detour along Center Highway (633) between Eckerle and Revold roads for trail users during the paving project.

Traverse Area Recreation and Transportation (TART) Trails awarded the paving contract to Team Elmer's earlier this month. The Leelanau Trail is a 15-mile trail spanning from Carter Road in Elmwood Township to downtown Suttons Bay.
When this project is completed, 8 miles of the trail will be paved.
