ARTBA accepting ‘Transportation Development Hall of Fame’ nominees

The American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) Foundation has announced it’s now accepting nominations for the 2015 “Transportation Development Hall of Fame.”

The Hall honors people from the public and private sectors who have made extraordinary contributions to U.S. transportation development or demonstrated exceptional leadership over their lifetime.

Nominations are considered in two categories:

Transportation Design & Construction Industry Innovators:  This category honors the men and women who discovered or created a “game changing” product or process that significantly advanced transportation design, construction and/or safety.  It seeks to honor the original innovator.

Transportation Design & Construction Industry Leaders (Individuals or Families): The category recognizes men, women and families who have made significant contributions—beyond just having successful businesses or careers—that have notably helped advance the interests and image of the transportation design, construction and safety industry.

ARTBA membership is not required to nominate a candidate. The class of 2014 and 2015 will be inducted at a special April 13 dinner during the ARTBA Federal Issues Program held in Washington, D.C.

Nominations must be submitted online at www.artbahalloffame.org by February 20.
