Road Maintenance and Snow Removal

The roads within the town are classified as state roads, county roads and town roads. (See below.) Maintenance and safety concerns differ between each jurisdiction. The Rush Highway Department is responsible for the supervision, construction, repair, and maintenance of all town highways and streets and all culverts and storm water drainage systems within the jurisdiction of the town's rights-of-way. (NOTE: A permit required for work on all rights-of-way.) The town contracts with Monroe County for roadside mowing, dead animal pickup and approved summer road work.
