ENGINEERING AND

CONSTRUCTION SERVICES

“We are committed to designing and building a safe, efficient transportation system in the most cost-
effective and environmentally responsible manner possible. Our Capital Project Management staff
oversees all phases of major road and bridge improvement projects and acquires all easements and
right-of-way for capital projects. Traffic Engineering employees manage traffic signals, signs, and
pavement markings, and monitor traffic volumes and crash data. They respond to traffic-related
inquiries and work with school districts to ensure safety. Design and review of capital projects is
provided by our Road and Bridge Engineering section, which also maintains the County Road
Design and Construction Standards. The County Surveyor’s Office establishes and maintains
public land corners, while reviewing and approving partition, subdivision, and condominium
plats. The Surveyor’s Office is also responsible for administering road naming and addressing,
and staff provides design, mapping, and construction staking services for other LUT divisions.”
Gary Stockhoff, Engineering and Construction Services Manager

In 2014-15 we continued to develop partnerships with
residents, the Board, cities, TriMet, Oregon Department of
Transportation (ODOT), and other agencies to identify major
transportation improvement projects funded by the Major
Streets Transportation Improvement Program (MSTIP).
