TIMELY COORDINATION OF UTILITY RELOCATION FOR HIGHWAY PURPOSES

The speaker focuses on the issues encountered when utilities owned by most special districts, some municipalities, and some counties must be relocated as a result of highway projects. Obstacles encountered include construction delay due to lack of funding by the utility owners and inability to agree on contract terms to satisfy statutory requirements. A strategy is presented to successfully address all of the problems encountered.
