 Thomas
R. Bohuslav, P.E., is director of the
Construction Division of the Texas
Department of Transportation (TxDOT). Under his direction, the division is
responsible for construction contracting, including letting. The division also
ensures that all materials used in construction and maintenance are uniformly
tested for quality. He also oversees TxDOT’s pavements section,
which is responsible for pavement management and design.
Joining TxDOT’s Brownwood District as a summer employee in 1976, Bohuslav began
his career as a seal-coat inspector and laboratory technician. He worked in the
Lubbock District Maintenance Office before accepting a full-time position in
Brownwood District’s Brown County Area Office in 1983. Bohuslav was assigned
area engineer of the Lampasas Area Office in 1987, and became Abilene District’s
director of operations in 1993.
On Nov. 1, 1996, Bohuslav became director of the Construction and Maintenance
Division in Austin. A reorganization of TxDOT in the spring of 1998 resulted in
a separation of construction and maintenance activities. He was named director
of the Construction Division effective April 1998.
A native of Hallettsville, Bohuslav earned his bachelor’s degree in civil
engineering from Texas Tech University in 1982 and became a registered
professional engineer in Texas in 1988. |
