It's National Engineers Week! THANK YOU to our hardworking engineers throughout the department and around the state. We are PROUD of your achievements and appreciate all the awesome work you do to Keep Alaska Moving! ️ 

Today, we're throwing the spotlight on DOT Senior Bridge Engineer, Elmer Marx! During an inspection on Bridge #581, Miller Creek, Richardson Highway, Elmer “chain drags” the bridge deck to locate concrete delaminations. The chain makes a distinct hollow sound while rattling over delaminated sections, which deteriorate the deck and bridge condition. Elmer has designed and inspected Alaska’s bridges for over 30 years. Thank you for your amazing dedication!
