Martic Township
Road Department
A special thanks to our dedicated Road Department for making the Martic Township roads safe for us to travel on, day and night!
Responsibilities of the Road Department:
(Applies to Township owned roadways only! PennDOT maintains the State owned roads)
-
Trimming back brush, shrubs and trees that have slowly begun to close off our roadways. We would like to remind our residents that the township's road right-of-way is 16 1/2' from the center of the road. (Lakewood is 25') Residents are asked to trim back and maintain the foliage on their property, to behind the right-of-way. Our road crew WILL eventually be reaching every Township road in Martic and if it needs done, they will be doing it!
-
Gutter cleaning and pipe replacement
-
Weed Control along Township roads and the Rail-trail, which includes mowing and spraying
-
Paving and Seal Coating (Tar & Chipping) of the Township roads
-
Road signage including: road names signs, stop signs, speed limits signs and various warning signs.
The township continually has theft and vandalism of our signage. If you see a sign damaged or stolen, please contact the Township Road Dept. This is an ongoing safety concern.
-
Winter Maintenance - such as snow plowing and salting the Township roads.
Please note: the only state road that Martic is contracted for winter maintenance on is Martic Heights Drive. PennDOT is responsible for snow removal on all other state owned roads in Martic.
