The Project Design is responsible for concept through
final design of the road projects listed in the TIP. In-House design
projects are completed by the design staff using field data gathered by
the Survey Section. These designs are supervised by the Design Engineer
and go through multiple reviews by In-House personnel. Other projects
are designed by consulting engineers and coordinated with an In-House
Project Manager who monitors the design and its progress. These plans
are subject to the same rigorous review procedures used for In-House
design projects.
The Transportation Department then oversees the application of permits
from applicable regulatory agencies, preparation of an Engineers
Estimate of Probable Construction Costs, preparation of Bid
Specifications, and works with the Purchasing Department during the
bidding process. Following the award of a project by the Board of County
Commissioners, the project is overseen by the Construction Inspection
Section. |
