Superintendents and engineers meet in Pike County The Southwest Superintendents and Engineers Association met last Wednesday in Petersburg at No. 423 Smokehouse. Pike County Highway Department Superintendents Roger Ham and Josh Byrd are new members of the group. Past President Steve Berg of Dubois County said all 92 counties partici- pate in the group that helps keep track of legislation at the state level affecting highway departments and also has training for its members. Byrd said the group is helpful by being able to network with other superintendents to learn about what is working well for them, such as new types of equipment or new techniques.
