Snogebæk Authority, operations, maintenance and construction

• Opportunity for sharing of knowledge • Possibility for back-up • Maintain an environment of design of roads Advice from an exciting project

• Technical aspects have to work (phones, computers...) • Get to know each other - person to person • Respect each others’ points of views • Accept each other • Accept that something goes wrong – it will! • Use humour – you might as well laugh instead of getting annoyed
