Highway/Heavy/Utility Contractors Council

The Highway/Heavy/Utility Contractors Council was formed to provide a forum for issues of unique significance to heavy/civil/highway contractors. The leadership of this council works regularly with the leadership of the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT).

The Council is open to any heavy/civil/highway contract members. Interested members can also volunteer to participate in sub-groups that include: roads, bridges, specialty, and administration. If you are interested in joining the Highway Council please contact Government Affairs Assistant Bev Eddy, 503-685-8330.
