Routine
maintenance generally consists of grading once or twice per year. Seasonal
roads in Ogemaw County generally receive maintenance (grading) in the spring.
The Road Commission does not maintain or snowplow seasonal roads between the
months of November 1st - April 30th. NO maintenance is conducted on these roads
during these months. Therefore, a seasonal road may not be open to public
travel during this time.
In order to
receive winter maintenance, seasonal roads must be upgraded to the current Road
Commission's standards at other's expense. A public hearing is required to make
changes to the seasonal road system.
For a quick
overview of seasonal roads, view this video created by our fellow road commission
in Antrim County.
