Engineering at Gosling Czubak

We serve municipalities, commercial and residential developers, industrial clients, and other professional consultants to plan community improvements, evaluate existing infrastructure facilities, secure funding to make projects affordable, and design developments that are easy to maintain and operate.

  • Roads & Bridges

    Municipalities, county road commissions, and developers have used our design services to complete roads, bridges, and trails to accommodate high traffic volumes, complete streets in context-sensitive neighborhoods and environmentally significant areas, and deliver bridges for bicycle and walking paths in remote areas.

  • Site Engineering

    Our familiarity with local zoning and approval processes, condominium subdivisions, plats, conventional condominiums, drinking water, sewer systems, and stormwater management allows us to design, permit, and record developments quickly. This allows developers to bring their projects to market as soon as possible.

  • Stormwater Management

    Stormwater runoff and erosion control are often the most challenging aspects of site planning and design. Protection of neighboring properties and natural resources from the affects of the increased run-off caused by development is a critical part of creating sustainable development.

  • Wastewater Collection & Treatment

    Gosling Czubak has designed more wastewater treatment systems than any firm in Northern Michigan. We have considerable knowledge of available waste treatment technologies, grant funding, and an excellent working relationship with regulatory officials.

  • Water Supply & Treatment

    There is no more important natural resource than our drinking water. Gosling Czubak has helped provide safe, dependable drinking water to numerous municipalities and private developments in Michigan.
