Small Bit of History
The Road Commission currently maintains approximately 1,634 miles of certified roads in the county road system;
out of these total miles, 771 are gravel roads. There are 112 bridges and more than 2,000 culverts also maintained by the agency; and in addition, the Road Commission is contracted by the Michigan Department of Transportation to maintain approximately 576 lane miles of State Trunkline.
All primary (588 miles) and local (1,045 miles) public roads in
Washtenaw County that are outside the cities and villages are maintained by Road Commission crews,
who provide such services as dust control, gravel road grading, snow removal, pavement resurfacing, storm
drainage, tree removal and a variety of other services, including but not limited to road and bridge construction,
sign and signal maintenance, pavement marking and guardrail repairs.
