Sevierville Public Works

What a great day at our Roadeo on Thursday!

Our employees put their skills, precision, and professionalism, to the test in a series of equipment challenges that showcased the talent and dedication they bring to work every day. Competitors participated in 4 events featuring a backhoe, knuckle-boom truck, side-loading garbage truck, and skid steer.

Events like the Roadeo not only promote safety and operational excellence, but also provide opportunities for teamwork, friendly competition, professional development, and the chance to build camaraderie among coworkers. The winners will represent the City of Sevierville at the statewide Roadeo competition in Knoxville later this year.

A BIG thank you to all participants, organizers, volunteers, and supporters who helped make this year’s event a success! We are proud of the hard work, skill, and commitment demonstrated by everyone involved!

To finish out , we take into consideration how Public Works will impact future generations.

Last Wednesday, we had the opportunity to attend CareerQuest Sevier County. This annual event connects students with area business and government entities to explore local career paths. During this event, we had the pleasure of explaining the different careers that makes up our Public Works Department and city as a whole. Programs like these helps our department to inspire students to pursue education and training in skilled trades or public service careers.

In the long term, these learning experiences can help prepare our future generations contribute positively to our city’s growth and development. A big Thank You to everyone who participated!

Continuing our Public Works Week Celebration, today is ! One of our throwback projects would be the paving of our wonderful greenway that travels through our City Park.

This started circa 2014 & has been a serviceable addition ever since. The walking trail at Sevierville City Park 0.5 miles long and connects directly to the Memorial River Trail Greenway, which delivers another 2 miles of paved trail along the Little Pigeon River.

While the greenways are maintained and managed by Sevierville Parks & Recreation Department, our Public Works crews are proud to play a key role in the construction process through jobsite management, coordination, oversight, and paving of the trail systems that help connect the community to these scenic outdoor spaces.
