WHAT WE DO
Local Agencies

City projects can vary from simple road resurfacing to full-depth pavement reconstruction with utility replacement. LRE has the design capabilities and experience to accommodate our clients’ projects. We will work closely with the community to develop a collaborative team that understands the project goals and community success factors.

road commissions
LRE’s rapport with county staff have opened opportunities for building relationships with road commissions in addition to drain offices. Our knowledge of the counties we serve proves to be an asset when working with the transportation side as well.
The LRE project team has experience in the following areas working with county road commissions:
- Road resurfacing design including full-depth reconstruction and resurfacing
