Message from the Highway Commissioner
As your Highway Commissioner, I am proud to serve our community by ensuring that our roads, bridges, and public infrastructure are safe, reliable, and well-maintained year-round.
My top priorities include road safety, timely snow and ice removal, efficient drainage systems, and regular maintenance that meets the growing needs of our residents.
Our dedicated team works hard every day to respond promptly to weather events, repair damage, improve traffic flow, and plan long-term infrastructure upgrades. We are committed to transparency, fiscal responsibility, and staying responsive to your concerns.
Whether you’re reporting a pothole, inquiring about a project, or just learning more about how your local government works, we are here to help you stay informed and connected.
Thank you for your continued support. Together, we can keep our roads safe and our community moving forward.
Sincerely,
Terrance “Terry” Carr, Highway Commissioner of Lyons Township
