The Highway Department is responsible for the maintenance of approximately 640 miles of asphalt, chip and seal and gravel roads.  The Highway Department receives its funding from a portion of the gasoline tax collected at the pump throughout the State of Indiana. We also receive Wheel Tax revenue collected at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles when license plates are purchased.  The County Highway does not receive property tax.  
 
During all season, the Highway Department has many duties in caring for and preserving the roadways and right-of-ways and sign maintenance.   All through the year, the team works hard to ensure Whitley Count roads are safe and will maintained for the residents and guests of Whitley County.
