Right of Way (ROW) / Public Works Construction Inspector

What they do: 
These inspectors oversee work done on public property - think roads, sidewalks, water mains, and sewer lines. They ensure that contractors don't damage public utilities and that new infrastructure (like ADA-compliant ramps) meets city standards. 

Demand: Strong. Driven by federal and state infrastructure funding (like the IIJA), public works projects are booming. Cities need ROW inspectors to manage the constant flow of utility repairs and street improvements.
