The Civil Department focuses on the specialized engineering discipline that relates to general civil, site civil, stormwater planning and management, parking lots, drives and sidewalks, subdivision and site development and miscellaneous engineering needs not specifically related to transportation or public utilities.
Our work includes projects for public sector clients, state and not-for-profit agencies, universities and school districts, residential, commercial, and industrial clients. Throughout the years, MECO has assisted our clients in the planning, application, design and construction of a variety of surface enhancement projects with many financed through the various MoDOT Enhancement Programs throughout the years.
