TRAVERSE CITY, MI — Residents, businesses, bicyclists, and pedestrians should be aware that Traverse City Light & Power (TCLP) will perform tree trimming along the TART Trail network area known as “Boardman Lake Trail Bridge – North” on Thursday, May 7, 2026.  Work will take place at the north end of Boardman Lake along the TART Trail west of the bridge, and tree trimming equipment will temporarily impede trail access in this section from 9:00 a.m. to approximately 11:00 a.m., weather permitting, to perform the work safely.  Bicyclists and pedestrians will be allowed to navigate around the work area off the Trail.

If possible, please use alternative routes to avoid this area to reduce congestion and promote worker safety.

We would like to thank you in advance for your patience and cooperation.  Please contact the TCLP Scheduling & Operations Coordinator at (231) 932-4565 if you have any questions or concerns regarding this work.
