Welcome to the Kalamazoo County Road Commission

CELEBRATING OUR CENTENNIAL YEAR 1909 - 2009

YOUR LOCAL ROAD PROFESSIONALS

Welcome to the Kalamazoo County Road Commission website. Our major goal has always been to communicate with the public in every way that we can.

Another goal is to maintain a county road system that is safe and convenient for public travel and to manage the roadside environment, with a view toward preservation.

We are responsible for over 1,260 miles of county roads. We also provide traffic control and maintain the roadsides along these roadways.

Working with other governmental units, we work hard to locate and maximize every dollar available for road maintenance and construction.

All of us at the Kalamazoo County Road Commission are dedicated to meeting your needs and addressing your concerns. We're here to serve you with office hours from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
