Transportation Planning Council Awards


The ITE Transportation Planning Council Best Project Award is bestowed on a project that applied innovative techniques to a transportation related issue/problem in a study or planning effort. Projects that will benefit the profession through greater understanding of transportation issue and for the betterment to the public, through effective and innovative solutions are encouraged to be submitted for consideration. Submissions that effectively communicate a problem statement, clearly outline methods used, highlight results, advance feasible and reliable solutions, and demonstrate the benefits to the public will be given the highest consideration. The emphasis is on an applied project, study and/or program; not research, design or construction.

The ITE Transportation Planning Council Best Program Award is bestowed on a new program that has been implemented or an existing program that has been improved and/or expanded in order to better serve the transportation community. A program is not a one-time study, report or research document per se; but rather a transportation service or application of a transportation service that can be described in appropriate documentation to be submitted for the purposes of the Award. Programs developed and/or advanced by public agencies and others are welcome and encouraged to apply.
