Construction To Be Done on Cooley Lake Road
The road will be resurfaced this construction season.
The Road Commission for Oakland County (RCOC) this week announced almost $30 million in 2013 road projects, including one in White Lake.
According to a press release, plans call for the repair, rehabilitation and resurfacing of Cooley Lake Road from Union Lake Road to Williams Lake Road on the White Lake/Commerce Township border. This will include repairing the road and adding 3-4 inches of new asphalt to existing lanes.
The project will cost an estimated $450,000.

The release indicated that construction season starts as soon as weather permits and typically runs until mid-November.
“We have an aggressive road-improvement program this year, despite the continued insufficiency of state and federal road funding,” RCOC Chairman Greg Jamian said. “However, we are committed to stretching every dollar we receive as far as possible and repairing as many roads as we can. However, there remain many roads that need repairs that we are not able to address due to insufficient funding.”
