In an effort to get the U.S. Department of Defense to show them the money, the Guam Department of Public Works' Division of Highway Safety, along with their consultants, Parsons Brinckerhoff and the Parsons Transportation Group, will be departing for Washington, DC. PTG project manager and management consultant for DPW Jeff Fielder says they have reached a point working with the DoD on a regular basis to help define exact requirements for constructing haul roads and bridges.All this work, Fielder says, is in timely preparation for the upcoming military buildup.
