The City of Dublin Engineering Department develops design work and construction contracts for improvements to the city’s transportation, water, sewer, and natural gas systems. Requests for improvements are evaluated individually, and alternative solutions are devised to identify the most cost-effective way to resolve problems.
The Engineering Department conducts a thorough inspection of each contract awarded by the City of Dublin. Additionally, this department oversees construction to verify that workmanship and materials meet the written plans and specifications. The City of Dublin works diligently to secure grant support for as many projects as possible; that is why our Engineering Admin also manages the city's grants. Contact our Engineering Admin & Grants Coordinator, Candi Powell.

Every year, the Engineering Department inspects all city streets and develops a repair and maintenance plan. This process involves preparing a bidding program, overseeing paving operations to ensure they follow program specifications, and keeping records of street maintenance for future reference.
Streets are assessed for resurfacing through the Georgia Department of Transportation’s Pavement Condition Evaluation System (PACES). PACES considers the current surface conditions and the average annual daily traffic (AADT) for each roadway and assigns a score.

The Engineering Department reviews and approves plans for new streets and drainage facilities within proposed subdivisions constructed by private developers. In this process, proposed plans are reviewed for compliance with standards and, if approved, monitoring of the construction of such streets and facilities is also overseen by the Engineering Department. This department also reviews plans for all new commercial development, taking in the impact of such development on existing traffic patterns and drainage facilities.
The Engineering Department oversees the operation and maintenance of all city-maintained traffic signals.
