The Redford Community


. Redford Michigan Township Hall 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 Wayne County.

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, Plymouth Road, and Grand River Avenue (M-5). Transportation access is excellent with 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.
