Each spring the township board tours the township roads and meticulously journals. The condition of all roads they also review the road history maintenance to provide insight into recent improvements to roads. Based on these findings, roads are selected based on available funds to be restored, resurfaced and newly blacktopped. Based on traffic patterns roads that are selected for blacktopping are subject to a 2 to 3 year process of surveying, base building, and finally new blacktop installation. These roads are selected on the basis of roads that have the highest use based on traffic counts requested by the township board.
It is also a goal to create both east and west and north south thoroughfares that are spaced equally through the township with relation to the state highways and county primary roads. While significant increases in blacktop roads have been made and will continue to be made, it is always the focus of the board to maintain all roads. There is a deep commitment to annual grading, gravel patch stockpiles, dust control, roadside mowing and line painting that keep roads safe and functional for all users.
