Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

This year marked the 14th year of this award program. Since its inception approximately 444 projects have been nominated over the program's life. 42 projects in 16 TxDOT Districts from 22 members were nominated for these prestigious awards.

2011 marks the expansion of the Quality Paving Award program to other owner entities.

As always, the competition was very close and making the selection of the ultimate winner was extremely difficult. We want to thank the winning TxDOT districts and TXAPA members for their hard work and diligence in striving to be the best. Due to the Partners in Quality attitude of TXAPA members and the TxDOT districts, Texas has on of the best asphalt highway systems in the nation.
