- Planning, designing, building, and maintaining public streets, bridges, and bikeways in unincorporated Orange County.
- Developing standards for construction of public infrastructure by private developers.
- Reviewing permits for private use of public roadway or for the modification of road infrastructure by private parties.
- Participating in steering committees and working with special interest groups and organizations.
- Providing project management, engineering, and construction management services to local municipalities, Caltrans, Transportation Corridor Agency (TCA), and the Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA) on cooperative projects.
