The American Concrete Pavement Association (ACPA) named recipients of its 27th Annual “Excellence in Concrete Pavements” awards at the 53rd ACPA Annual Meeting held in Austin, Texas, USA. The Awards recognize quality concrete pavements constructed in the United States and Canada. The awards program encourages high-quality workmanship in concrete pavement projects, and serves as a way to share information about challenging and highly successful projects. Judges representing various stakeholder groups throughout the transportation-construction community evaluate projects for the award consideration. The program recognizes contractors, engineers, and project owners who completed outstanding projects. The program requires projects to be completed in the calendar year prior to judging (2016).

About the Excellence Awards: The ACPA Excellence in Concrete Pavements awards are made possible, in large measure, because of the generous time commitment of independent judges from across the country. The judges each spend many hours reviewing executive summaries, project details, photographs, and other details and aspects of project submittals.
For publications looking for case histories throughout the year, ACPA encourages concrete pavement companies, organizations and associations to consider these award-winning projects!
