Franklin County Engineer

As a local public works agency headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, the Franklin County Engineer's Office is responsible for the maintenance and construction of 271 miles of county roadway and 351 county bridges, as well as upkeep of all county ditches, drains, retention basins, and other storm water facilities within the right-of-way of county roads in unincorporated areas. To meet the continuing development and infrastructure needs of Franklin County, the Engineer's Office utilizes the latest technologies for determining and maintaining roadway centerlines and boundaries; retracing and setting new monuments for original public land surveys; preparing geographic information system mapping for real estate tax assessments; and establishing precise countywide horizontal and vertical control to maintain uniformity in construction, surveying, and mapping.

#TeamFCEO had an absolute blast yesterday at Prairie Township’s Trick-or-Treat Trail event! Beautiful weather, an outstanding turnout, and plenty of Halloween spirit made for a fantastic day! We enjoyed seeing all the creative costumes, sharing smiles, and connecting with so many wonderful families. Events like this are a great reminder of how much we enjoy being part of the community we serve! A big thank you to Prairie Township, Franklin County, OH, for hosting such a fun-filled event, and to everyone who stopped by to say hello!
