There are approximately 180 miles of road in Ridgefield for which the Highway Department is responsible. Our crew of 17 men carry out projects that include paving, grading of unpaved roads, cutting gutters, drainage, mowing and brush cutting, snow plowing, sanding and road sweeping. Our department responds to weather and traffic related emergencies, as requested by the Police Department. We perform many functions assisting other departments, as well as for special events such as parades, fairs, etc. This department is also responsible for the installation and maintenance of all street name signs in town. |
