Municipal engineering is concerned with municipal infrastructure. Ensuring that critical services are available 24/7 to the community and that all services are provided in the most economic and effective ways.
This is done through combining engineering knowledge with democratic accountability by advising government, at both a local and national level, of the issues that communities face and the best providing services.
Professional advice, initially given to citizens, governing structures and the media are the hallmarks of municipal engineering. Designing, procuring and managing municipal assets for the benefit of everyone within the community.
