Johnson County Meets New WYDOT Engineer

The new Buffalo Resident Engineer for the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT) was introduced to the Johnson County Commission during their Monday meeting.

Jake Whisonant was introduced by County Road & Bridge Supervisor Scott Pehringer, who then discussed the 2024 Buffalo Main Street reconstruction project, and the proposed agreement to “piggyback” a local Johnson County road project onto the WYDOT project.

The cost of the county project is estimated at $1.2 million with funding expected to come from the county’s road fund.

The agreement was approved, pending review by the county attorney.
