It starts here...Public Works Week 2019
Have you ever wondered how a city runs? How clean drinking water flows through your tap? What happens after the toilet flushes? Who plans and builds the roads, sidewalks and bike lanes to ease your commute? Where does your garbage go after it is picked up?
All these things that make your day run, start with a municipality's public works department and its employees. Building on this concept is the theme of the 2019 National Public Works Week – “It Starts Here”. This theme represents the many facets of modern civilization that grow out of the efforts put forth by the public works and engineering professionals in Esquimalt, the CRD and across North America.
What starts here? Infrastructure starts with public works... Growth and innovation starts with public works... Mobility starts with public works... Security starts with public works... Healthy communities start with public works... The bottom line is that citizens' quality of life starts with public works.
