WINTER TIPS & REMINDERS:
- After a snow storm, our drivers each have about 50 miles of road to plow.
- It is against the law to plow snow across a public roadway or pile snow so high it obstructs the view of a vehicle operator.
- Salt stops working the lower the temperatures get and may, in fact, make conditions worse.
- It is state law that vehicles are to remain at least 200 feet behind a snowplow.
- Pile snow to the right or your driveway and mailbox. It will help reduce the amont of snow pushed into or in front of your driveway/mailbox.
- Our drivers must follow a regular route to provide the most efficient snowplowing. Please be patient.
Permits are available on the “Forms” page of this website, via fax (231) 839-5381 or email at payroll@mcrc-roads.com. Call the Road Commission for more information.

About Us
The Missaukee County Road Commission was established in 1928. The Missaukee County Road Commission has a three-member Board of Road Commissioners who are elected by the voters. The Missaukee County Board of Commissioners decides whether road commissioners are appointed or elected. Road Commissioners serve six-year terms. The terms are staggered so that all Commissioners are not up for re-election at the same time.
The county road system consists of both primary and local roads. Primary roads are generally paved roads that function as either minor or major collectors. The local road system consists of all other roads that are under the jurisdiction of the Missaukee County Road Commission. Currently we have 222 miles of Primary Roads and 634 Miles of Local Roads (including seasonal roads). In addition, the Missaukee County Road Commission maintains 132 Lane miles of State Trunkline under contract with the Michigan Department of Transportation.
