Robinson Takes Over As Area DOT Engineer
BY BRENDA THOMPSON
Staff Writer
Kenneth E. Robinson, Jr. is lit
erally following in his father’s
footsteps.
In fact, with his recent promo
tion from a project manager for the
Georgia Department of
Transportation to the department’s
local resident engineer, he’s now
sitting in the same seat in which
his father sat for several years
before retiring in September 1988.
Robinson, a 1989 graduate of
Southern Tech in Marietta, assumed
his new duties on February 1. He
was promoted after a five year stint
as a project manager working in the
Perry office and replaces the
recently retired John “Todie”
Marshall. His new responsibilities
include overseeing all DOT
construction and maintenance
projects on state roads in Houston,
Peach, Pulaski, Dooly and Macon
counties.
“The DOT definitely runs in my
family’s blood . . .My father
worked with the department; my
grandfather worked with the depart
ment My great uncle, my cousins
and my brother all work for the de
partment,” Robinson said smiling.
“As for this job, I am very excited
about my new duties and am look
ing forward to working with the
public. I feel very strongly about
