IDEAL Roads & Bridges

Ideal Township maintains approximately 52 miles of road. All township roads have a maximum speed limit of 30 mph unless otherwise posted. Please be considerate of pedestrians, bicyclers and other drivers by driving safely at all times.

The township has partnered with Breezy Point to survey area traffic patterns through the use of a traffic monitoring system that will be used in various locations throughout the township. Click to see the results of some traffic surveys completed recently:

Recent Projects

The upgrade of Old Whiskey Road is complete. The road has been widened in some areas, trees & power poles have been removed from the edge of the road, and the entire road has been resurfaced. These upgrades will improve the safety and durability of the road.

A portion of Forest Knolls Road has been patched and resurfaced to repair some soft spots that have been a problem over the years resulting in potholes. In addition, a section of the ditch has been modified to eliminate drainage problems at the intersection of Forest Knolls and West Clear Lake Road.

If you have comments or questions about these projects or any township roads & bridges, please contact Jim Brandt, the town clerk, or any supervisor.
