This
is the best practices document that has come from the Changing Lanes
meeting held on February 5, 2004 in Richmond.
The
purpose of that meeting was to solicit dialogue between the Consulting
Engineers of British Columbia, the British Columbia Road Builders
Association and the Ministry of Transportation on how we can work
together, consistently and successfully, in the delivery of construction
projects.
During
the Changing Lanes meeting, a fictitious project and a series of
problems were presented to the audience. The audience, which consisted
of representatives from the Consulting Engineers of British Columbia,
the British Columbia Road Builders Association and the Ministry
of Transportation, was invited to discuss these problems amongst
their tables and come up with solutions.
After
the meeting, these solutions were submitted to a committee to distill
a best practices document in the sections of: 1) Authority, 2) Quality
Control, Quality Assurance and End Product Specifications, and 3)
Environmental.
