The Indiana, Michigan, Minnesota, and Missouri DOTs have received top honors in this year’s Mid-America regional American Transportation Awards competition, sponsored by AASHTO, AAA, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. The competition honors transportation projects in three categories: Ahead of Schedule, Under Budget, and Best Use of Innovation.
\nOf the twelve transportation projects from seven Mid-American states, five projects received awards.<\/p>\n
Two states took home awards in the Ahead of Schedule category. Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) won in the small category (projects that cost under $25 million) for its I-465\/Allisonville Road Interchange Reconstruction Project. Missouri Department of Transportation was awarded the win in the large category (costing more than $200 million) for its Safe and Sound Bridge Improvement Program.
\nIn the Under Budget category, Minnesota Department of Transportation was named winner in the medium category (projects costing between $25-$200 million) for the Highway 169\/I-494 Interchange Reconstruction Project. Indiana DOT took home a second award, this time for its I-69 Evansville to Indianapolis Corridor (Sections 1-3) Project (large category).
\nTwo projects received an award in the Best Use of Innovation category: Michigan Department of Transportation for its Main Street Makeover (M-150) Project (small category) and Missouri DOT won again for its Shared Four-Lane Highway Project (medium category).<\/p><\/blockquote>\nFor more information about these projects and the competition, visit americastransportationawards.org<\/a> and the AASHTO press release<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
