Starke County Highway Department Begins Mowing Season

The Starke County Highway Department is preparing for the mowing season. 

Officials ask motorists to safely pull to the side of the road to assist crews engaged in mowing efforts.  It is the highway department’s policy to mow five feet from the edge of the roadway for better visibility.  On corners and intersections, crews mow 15 feet in all directions for safety reasons.  Additional vegetation may be cut in order to accommodate visibility at some corners and intersections.
