Welcome to the Waupaca County Highway Department website.  We’re hoping to have this site be a resource of information to everyone.  Please use this website resource as a tool to help inform yourself of department bid information, contact information or any other highway related topic.
Please be mindful of our workers while traveling through our construction sites,
while snowplowing and other areas you see them working. 
Let’s have a safe 2022!
