Road and Bridge

Mission

To provide for the safe operating condition of all roads and bridges on the County Road System by providing a quality road maintenance program.​

The Alachua County Road & Bridge Office is responsible for the safe operation and maintenance of the county-wide transportation network of roads, bridges and associated rights-of-way. The road system consists of over 640 miles of paved roads and 240 miles of graded roads.

If you have a problem concerning a county-maintained road or right-of-way such as: pothole, stop sign down, dead animal on the road, tree limb down, road side drop off, clogged culvert, sight distance problem, etc. you may send an email rbmaintenance@alachuacounty.us and report the problem. The Road & Bridge office will need your name, phone number, location of the problem, and a brief description of the problem.
