Culvert failures pose a real roadway safety concern for many Towns and Cities. Preventing culvert failures typically requires the construction of a new culvert. However, designs must comply with strict regulations which prevents inexpensive culvert design and construction. This makes grant funding extremely competitive!

On June 1, Ryan Paul, PE, CFM presented, “How to Fund and Permit Your Culvert Replacements” at the Massachusetts Tri-County Highway Superintendent’s Association annual meeting.
