Consultants in Transportation and Highway Planning and Design
Many transportation and highway agencies employ consultants or consulting firms to make special studies, to design specific projects, and at times to supervise construction. Seldom, however, do consultants actually administer operating agencies. The degree to which consultants are employed varies widely among agencies. Furthermore, there are strong differences in opinion about the advisability of using consultants instead of doing this work in-house.
With highway planning, location, and design becoming more complex, difficult, and controversial, consultants from such fields as architecture, landscape architecture, environmental protection, and the social sciences often are engaged. At times a design team that includes these and possibly other specialists may be used. Accepted procedures for hiring consultants have been developed but there is controversy over view much they should be used and over the selection procedures, particularly for price as a factor.
