Welcome to the City of Dothan Public Works Department

Our department is charged with providing professional and technical expertise to the policy-making bodies of the City to help ensure orderly, adequate, and affordable services and infrastructure expansion to accommodate growth in the community.

There are four divisions within the department that are charged with public responsibilities: 

1.      The Engineering Services Division  assists developers with storm water management, subdivision construction review, and manages the public cemeteries in the City.   

2.     The Traffic Engineering Services Division manages the local transportation infrastructure including signs and signals, local street paving, and is responsible for development review of all transportation related infrastructure.

3.     The Street Division performs maintenance of city streets, rights-of-way, and the stormwater drainage system.  

4.     The Environmental Services Division operates the City landfill and provides once-a-week garbage collection and trash collection for all City of Dothan residents.  Additionally, the Environmental Services Division provides mosquito spraying services within the city limits of Dothan.

Each of these divisions is charged with various special projects from time to time such as, design and construction inspection of Capital Improvement Programs (e.g. street paving, installation of water and sewer lines), Westgate Parkway Five Lane Construction, and others.
