As the 10th smallest county in Michigan with a population of 52,000 people the Cass County Road Commission has the responsibility for the construction and maintenance of 1014 miles of roads. The county is approximately 24 miles wide by 22 miles deep with Cassopolis situated in the middle of the county.  At the direction of the townships, the Road Commission also constructs and improves county local roads. 

The Michigan Department of Transportation is responsible for major trunk lines in Cass County including US-12, M-60, M-40, M-51 and M-62.

The work of the Road Commission includes not only snow removal and road repair, but also the upgrading and building of new and existing roads to current standards. Cass County is only one of three counties in Michigan operating its own asphalt operation, as well as gravel operations and centralized equipment maintenance facility.
 
The Road Commission accomplishes this work at the lowest possible cost, saving generated by this approach to county road work largely account for the over 772 miles of paved Cass County roads.
