Training is underway for Pike County road department foremen on a new computer software system.
During the Pike County Fiscal Court meeting Dec. 15, Pike County Judge-Executive Ray S. Jones II explained what the new software will do.
âThis new system will allow us to track the cost of every dayâs work,â Jones said. âThis is in both materials used, equipment and manpower.
âWhen it comes time to work on the budget next year, weâll have a better idea where weâre spending money,â Jones said. âWeâll have a better idea of how long it takes to do various projects whether it s putting a drain in or cleaning a culvert out, it will help us better track material.â
