The Montgomery County Highway Department is proud to care for our community’s roads and infrastructure. Every day, our team works hard to maintain:
-
818 miles of roadway (166 miles paved, 354 miles chip seal, 300 miles gravel)
-
179 bridges
-
Over 2,500 small drainage structures and culverts
-
More than 3,800 road signs and markers
Our goal is simple: to keep our roads safe and reliable while making improvements that extend the life of our roadways. By staying proactive, we aim to set the standard for county highway departments across Indiana.
