The Downtown Ferndale Sidewalk Repair and Replacement Project is underway! ✨

Crosswalks that connect the north and south sides of Nine Mile will be closed while crews install new curbs. This affects the crossings at Planavon, the west side of Allen Road, and the mid-block Rainbow crosswalk. The eastern crosswalk at Allen Road will remain open. 🚧

➡️ You may notice some small changes to traffic, parking, and walking routes. Traffic will be one-way during the day and return to two-way at night. Most sidewalks will stay open during construction, but they might be a bit dusty. Thank you for your patience!

➡️ The project schedule was planned to avoid major downtown events.

➡️ Most of the funding for this project comes from the Downtown Development Authority and a $300,000 grant from Oakland County.

Last Thursday, we recognized Juneteenth with our annual flag-raising ceremony outside Ferndale City Hall.

Thank you to Mayor Raylon-Leaks May, Ferndale Public School students Ediseima Odungide, Maya Omowale, and Julianna Mickles, and FPS Superintendent Camille Hibbler for speaking about what Juneteenth and freedom mean to them.

Six years ago, the City Council proclaimed that on June 19, 2020, and each anniversary thereafter, the City of Ferndale will celebrate Juneteenth, in recognition that on June 19, 1865, emancipation finally reached the last Confederate state – nearly three years after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed into law. We are proud to be led by Ferndale’s first Black Mayor, Raylon-Leaks May, as we celebrate freedom, equality, and unity.

We appreciate everyone who joined the celebration and look forward to honoring this important day together for years to come. 💛💚❤️
