The primary mission of Transportation Engineering Services is to effectively and efficiently provide engineering support, design, and construction management for the improvement of our city's transportation system, and secondly, to ensure the integrity of that system through code enforcement and material testing.
The department is comprised of two different sections, Street Project Management and Technical Services that provide separate engineering services to ensure achievement of the mission and goals
Many construction projects are the result of petitions filed by property owners through the Barrett Law process, applications through the Community and Economic Development Block Grant program, and a yearly local street resurfacing program established by the Division of Public Works
