Our Township Roads are maintained with the help of a VOLUNTEER Roadmaster and a group of subcontractors and service firms. We will glady address your concerns. If you have a road related issue, please send me an e-mail at Roadmaster@ChaddsFordPA.net and I will get back to you as quickly as possible. I can't always promise the answer you want, but will try to help solve any issue.

Please note that many roads in our municipality are owned by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or Private developments and not the township. See the Township Road map (link below) to help decide who is responsible for a specific road. Thank you... Joe Barakat, Roadmaster.
