NOT all roads within the township are maintained by Clearcreek Township.

What to be aware of while driving during a snow event 

Some plows make frequent stops and backup maneuvers. Do not drive your car behind a snowplow, as the driver may be unable to see you and inadvertently back into your car. If you are behind a plow that stops, stop your vehicle so that your car looks into the driver’s outside mirror, and please give them extra room. Drivers are also urged to give an oncoming snow truck right of way. During the winter months, the berm or shoulder of the road is often too soft to support the weight of a loaded truck. These drivers cannot move off the road to let oncoming traffic pass on narrow roads. If you see a salt truck approaching while on a narrow road, please be courteous and pull off into the nearest driveway and let the snow truck pass. Please be especially careful and courteous when driving around salt trucks and snowplows.
