May-25 Webinar: Survey Technical Data for Utility PS&E and Agreement

The webinar will take place May 25, 2021 at 12:00 PM CST for 1 PDH.

This webinar covers the required technical data needed when scoping an above ground survey to include existing utilities. Many needed utility attributes are missed when surveying for highway design which requires surveyors to be remobilized and adds time to the identification of conflicts between proposed design features which may require relocations or “avoid in place” measures. Common overlooked items or unidentified precise shot points will be covered to avoid scope gaps and miscommunication of the needed data to be collected in above ground surveys.
