The American Road & Transportation Builders Association Transportation Development Foundation (ARTBA-TDF) is launching a new awards programme to recognise innovations in transportation.

The aim is to highlight developments that further improve the US infrastructure network for those who pay for it, use it and rely on it. The TransOvation Awards honour innovative transportation infrastructure-related products, services, technologies and techniques introduced over the past five years that provide a high return-on-investment. These may be by improving transportation safety, saving transportation users and taxpayers time and/or money or making transportation infrastructure more environmentally sustainable.

The awards will be presented on July 26th 2012 at a dinner held in conjunction with ARTBA’s TransOvation Workshop at the Lansdowne Resort & Conference Center in Leesburg, Virginia.
