Local crews serving Lake County since 1913

The Lake County Road Commission is a standalone governmental agency responsible for constructing, maintaining, and improving county roads, bridges, and drainage systems. Located on Michigan's west side — known for its lakes, streams, and forests — we maintain over 580 miles of road across all eleven townships. The Commission is governed by an appointed Board of County Road Commissioners and administered by a small, dedicated local staff.
