Redford Township Community Profile

The Charter Township of Redford, which derives its name from "Rouge ford," or crossing place of the Rouge River, is located in the north-central part of the Country.

Principally a residential community, it does have limited industrial development. This is concentrated mainly in an area bounded by Telegraph Road (US-24), Plymouth Road (M-14), Interstate 96 Freeway, and Inkster Road. The CSX Railroad parallels the I-96 Freeway. Most of the major commercial development is found along Telegraph Road, a series of major mile roads, both east-west and north-south, complimenting the Telegraph Road and I-96 corridors which connect to the region.
