Celebrating the 65th Annual National Public Works Week!

Honoring The People Behind the Infrastructure

At BKF Engineers, we’re proud to join the American Public Works Association in recognizing the 65th annual National Public Works Week. This is a time to honor the contributions of the professionals who design, build, and maintain the infrastructure that supports our daily lives.

Amidst the recent unpredictable weather events, Public Works departments and their dedicated teams have emerged as frontline heroes, confronting landslides, floods, severe storms, fires, and other natural disasters. As integral members of our communities, we wholeheartedly commend the swift mobilization of resources by these agencies and their teams to alleviate the effects of these challenges on our neighborhoods.

At BKF, we are proud to maintain numerous on-call contracts with hundreds of agencies across California and Oregon. These partnerships empower us to address both anticipated and unexpected community needs. Continue reading to discover the impactful projects and services we've delivered to local agencies.
