​Road Maintenance
The Ottawa County Road & Bridge/Highway Dept. is responsible for the roads, ditches and bridges that are designated as County.  The Highway Dept does the blading, grading, ditch cleaning and bridge repair and/or replacement within Ottawa County.  There are approximately 1056 miles of legally open roads in Ottawa County.  169 miles are designated as County Roads that are fully maintained by the Highway Department. 
 
There are 10 rural motor grader operators that take care of the gravel and dirt roads within Ottawa County.  Each operator is responsible for the blading of approximately 100 miles of earth surfaced roads.  Blading of County gravel roads is done first after a rain or snow, then Township gravel that have people living on them are done.  During the school year, bus routes are given higher priority.  Dirt roads and pasture miles are bladed last.  In the winter months that we have substantial snow, dirt roads and/or pasture miles are done only in an emergency for the tending of livestock.
 
Each Township Board is responsible for purchasing and delivering rock to township roads.  The Road & Bridge Department can refer residents to the appropriate Township officials if they have concerns about township road conditions.
