Engineering/Project Design
The design of Public Works Projects is an important key to making transportation
improvements a reality for the motoring public, or public facility improvements to
improve efficiency of operations or better serve the public needs.
The design phase of a project in the public works system basically takes a
concept, and develops a plan, specifications, and estimate (PS&E) for these
improvements. Other considerations are also addressed such as funding sources,
environmental issues, Right-of-Way, acquisitions, and project schedule.
Kittitas County Public Works design team performs in-house project design
for basic improvement projects. For larger scale or more complex projects,
engineering design consultants are contracted to perform these tasks under
supervision of the County Engineer.
