The Department of Highways and Bridges is responsible for maintaining the structural integrity and safe traveling conditions of certain roads within Ulster County and many bridges, large and small, including the right-of-way associated with each. It also maintains roads and parking lots that are the property of the County and utilized by other County departments. The work ranges from sweeping and plowing road and bridge surfaces, to complete deconstruction and reconstruction of both roads and bridges. The department maintains its own fleet of light and heavy equipment and the personnel to operate and repair it. Due to the size of the County, and traveling time involved in traversing it, the department maintains ten substations with small crews and limited equipment to ensure more economical road maintenance throughout the County.

The Offices of the Department are located on the first floor of the Joseph Resnick Building on the Corner of Hurley Avenue and Shamrock Lane in Kingston, just about a block west of the Hurley Avenue-Washington Avenue intersection. Meetings with the Commissioner or with area supervisors require an appointment since their work regularly takes them to other locations both within and outside the County. Maps are available at this location only.

Fees for Services: There is a charge of $5.50 for all maps.

Method of Payment: Cash or check payable to the Ulster County Treasurer.
