Franklin County Engineer

As a local public works agency headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, the Franklin County Engineer's Office is responsible for the maintenance and construction of 271 miles of county roadway and 351 county bridges, as well as upkeep of all county ditches, drains, retention basins, and other storm water facilities within the right-of-way of county roads in unincorporated areas. To meet the continuing development and infrastructure needs of Franklin County, the Engineer's Office utilizes the latest technologies for determining and maintaining roadway centerlines and boundaries; retracing and setting new monuments for original public land surveys; preparing geographic information system mapping for real estate tax assessments; and establishing precise countywide horizontal and vertical control to maintain uniformity in construction, surveying, and mapping.

It’s National Work Zone Awareness Week. Every cone, sign, and barrel represents people working to improve the roads and bridges we all rely on. Slow down, stay alert, put distractions away, and give crews the space they need to work safely. Together, we can help everyone get home safely. #NWZAW

Today, we had the pleasure of welcoming the all R friends community group to our facility. They visited to personally thank our Snow Fighters for their hard work this winter, helping keep the traveling public safe. The group presented a beautiful thank-you banner and spent time touring our facility and learning more about what we do each day. It was a meaningful visit and a great reminder of the impact our team has on the community we serve. Thank you, All R Friends, for your kindness and for taking the time to recognize our Snow Fighters. We truly appreciate it!

April is Ohio Native Plant Month! Native plants play an important role in supporting local ecosystems, improving water quality, and managing stormwater, key components of the work we do every day. Incorporating native vegetation along roadways, in drainage areas, and around infrastructure helps create more sustainable and resilient communities across Franklin County.
