The
Construction Section supervises
construction of all Agency construction projects designed
and constructed by the Agency, with a few exceptions.
Agency projects include all highways and bridges on the
State system, many town highway roads and bridges,
pedestrian/bike paths, and all State-owned railroad and
airport projects. To
meet its
responsibility of oversight the Construction Section assigns qualified "Resident Engineers,"
either Agency employees or contracted specialists, to each project
site to continually observe and inspect the work performed by
contractors, and to ensure that projects are built according
to their plans and specifications.
