Katherine graduated from the University of Plymouth with a Master\u2019s degree in Civil and Coastal Engineering in 2010 before joining Devon County Council as a Graduate Engineer on the Graduate Rotation Scheme later the same year. In 2013 Katherine was promoted to Assistant Engineer, followed by a further promotion to Engineer in 2017. In 2020 Katherine achieved Chartership with the Institution of Civil Engineers, which led to a promotion to Senior Engineer.<\/p>\n

Katherine\u2019s highlight of her time in EDG so far:<\/h3>\n

Bridge Road Swing Bridge Realignment, Exeter<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI had the great opportunity to both lead the design, and project manage this scheme including an
\nelement of site supervision. We needed to alter the alignment of Bridge Road at the Swing Bridge to
\nallow two lanes of traffic over the structure. This formed part of a much larger scheme to increase
\ncapacity along Bridge Road and unlock developments in the south west of Exeter.<\/p>\n

Permanently rotating the bridge was a complicated and welcome challenge. I applied my engineering
\nskills to solve problems, extend and alter structures, and move bearings etc to accommodate the
\nnew bridge position. My designs were drawn up and my structure specific specification elements
\ncontributed to the tender package.<\/p>\n

Once a Contractor was appointed under an NEC3 Option A contract I formed part of the site team
\noverseeing the construction works and dealing with the contract management. The experience I
\ngained from this scheme was invaluable and I thoroughly enjoyed working on it right from the planning
\nstages to successful completion.\u201d<\/p>\n
