A proposal for engineering services related to the rehabilitation of the Hay Creek Bridge on the Lakeland Trail in Hamburg Township has been approved.
The bridge was originally built as a train bridge in the late 1800âs and now serves as a pedestrian/maintenance access bridge for the Lakeland Trail. The existing walking surface and guardrails are in need of replacement. At a virtual board meeting last month, members voted to approve the engineering proposal at a fixed fee of $14,000.
Supervisor Pat Hohl told the board five years ago, they identified a serious need to address the decking on the Mike Levine Trail Bridge west of Chambers Road over Hay Creek, noting the structure is good but the decking is bad.

Various project agreements have been received and the cost to the township will be $1.8 (m) million. Some of that will come from the general fund but will be reimbursed later this year with road millage funds.
Supervisor Pat Hohl noted he had some discussions with the Road Commission and Drain Commission last fall and there was serious interest in trying to upgrade Teahen Road.
