Service Requests
As you come across potholes, contact us with a good description of where they are -- nearest address, distance from intersection, what side of the road, etc. We can always use another set of “eyes” out there!
Report road problems to 231-922-4848 or email us at: gtcrc@gtcrc.org
Winter Preparedness
We are gearing up for winter. Our winter sand pile is nearly as tall as as our salt barn. Sander boxes, spreaders and blades are being installed as our trucks change gears from summer to winter operations.
There is still time to check your furnace and its filters, smoke detectors, chimneys and mailboxes. The often-overlooked mailbox needs to be checked, too. Click here for a quick overview on mailbox winter survival tips - a few minutes of inspection and repair could save hours of outdoor repairs and lost/damaged mail.
Snowfall summary is as follows:
November 2011 2.5"
December 2011 2.75"
January 2012 48.50" for a season total of 53.75"

PrintPartnerships
It is a surprise to many people that the GTCRC is concerned about the environment, water quality, the trail system and plants. We have been partnering with the Conservation District and TART for decades - literally!
The GTCRC's "Adopt-a-Road" was one of the early programs in the State.
Safety education for students - Invite us to come to YOUR school and explain about winter safety, either while waiting for the bus or driving along side on the road. OR come to our office - climb the salt pile, sit in a truck, talk with our employees about transportation careers. We'd love to get to meet you!
How about your service organization? Would you like to have a presentation on transportation and roads? We're there for you, too.
Did you know that one of our Board members actually made a motion that triggered the start of the process we have come to know as the Grand Vision?
Our employees have been dedicated personal partners in providing Christmas gifts for Child & Family Services' clients.
