I live at this intersection. I am waiting for a horrific accident to occur due to folks careening around a 5-foot- wide moon crater (as of today, 2 large holes have mergered into one enormous one). These roads were dreadful last year when Kingsley was closed for renovations, and after all the construction traffic they are twice as bad. When you try to call about repairs, the county tells you it's the responsibility of Waterford Twp., and the township tells you it's up to the county. Maybe once the entire road washes away and buses can't reach the school they will finally get fixed!

@ Ms Baldwin..um read my issue where RCOC states in black and white that Shoreline is a COUNTY road...

These roads are public roads under the jurisdiction of the Road Commission for Oakland County. If you see potholes that need patching, please contact the Road Commission directly (call us at 877-858-4804 or visit our Website, www.rcocweb.org & click on "contact us"). We are not able to monitor this web site regularly.

While the Road Commission is able to patch potholes on these roads, RCOC's long-standing policy is that it only resurfaces subdivision roads if the majority of property owners along the roads are will wiilling to pay for the resurfacing through a special property tax assessment. If you would like to learn more about the special assessment process, please call the Road Commission's Subdivision Improvement and Development Division at 248-645-2000, ext. 2270.

Thank you,

Road Commission for Oakland County

These are public roads under the Road Commission's jurisdiction. We are very sympathetic to the concerns expressed here. We agree the road is in bad shape.

However, the Road Commission has no money to resurface subdivision roads. That's why we have a long-standing policy that we will assist subdivision residents who are willing to pay for the resurfacing of the their subdivision streets. We will work with you to establish a special assessment district project which will spread the cost over all property owners fronting the road, and allow for repayment over a 10-year period. If you would like to learn more about the special assessment district process, please call RCOC's Subdivision Improvement and Development Division at 248-645-2000, ext. 2270.

Unfortunately, the fact that school buses use the road does not result in any additional funding. We guarantee that th school district, which is also hurting for money, will not pay for any portion of the resurfacing.

your access info is incomplete

If it is a "Private road", then why can't we cut down or own trees that have fallen victim to the Emerald Ash Borer? I was told there was a fine if we tried to remedy the situation ourselves.

yes....... it is the worst around for over 50 buses for special ed kids and my parents 40 years at this address it needs to be fixed extra salt put on these roads for the buses this school serves many cities but the pot holes are the worst where you turn for the school shoreline and hallkirk asap..

According to the Road Commission, the only option is for a majority of residents to agree to pay for all of Shoreline Blvd to be repaved. I can guarantee that since we don't believe we've caused the damage, we won't agree to pay for it. RCOC's response is that it will just go to gravel. It will be interesting when all the buses careen around a gravel corner. Maybe that will cut down on the traffic that uses Shoreline as a cut-through from Sashabaw to Dixie.
