- Coordinate roadway design elements with other disciplines and required environmental resource avoidance or mitigation.
- Oversee the work of junior engineers and designers in the production of roadway construction contract documents.
- Assist the project manager with writing project special provisions and assembling specification packages.
- Maintain organized electronic records of roadway-related action items, design decisions, variances, and project correspondence.
- Determine required right-of-way acquisition, permanent easements, and temporary construction easements.
- Oversee roadway quantity calculations by junior engineers or designers.
- Develop overall project opinion of probable costs using current construction cost data.
- Assist the project manager in preparation for project-related meetings, including agendas and documentation.
- Assist the project or quality control managers with adhering to FHU’s Total Quality Management Program for roadway design.
- Assist the project manager in meeting project schedules and staying within budget for roadway design tasks.
