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.

As we close out Engineers Week, the Franklin County Engineer’s Office proudly recognizes the incredible engineers who serve our community every single day. Your work often happens behind the scenes, in plans, calculations, site visits, and long hours of review, yet the impact is visible everywhere: in the bridges that connect our communities, the roads that carry families safely home, and the infrastructure that supports growth, opportunity, and progress. This year’s theme, “Transform Your Future,” reflects the work you lead each day. Through innovation, precision, and dedication, you are building a stronger future for Franklin County. Thank you for the expertise and commitment you bring to our office and the community we serve.
