95 Express Wins America’s Best Transportation Award!

The Florida Department of Transportation District Six Office is proud to announce the 95 Express recently won the People’s Choice Award for America’s Best Transportation Project in 2009.

With more than 200,000 votes, the 95 Express won the top spot over 10 other projects in the final stage of the national competition. Sponsored by The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO), the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and the AAA, the competition evaluated 50 highway projects from 33 states in three areas: “Innovative Management,” “On Time,” and “On Budget.” After winning the regional competition in the “Innovative Management,” category and scoring the highest number of overall points during the evaluation process, the 95 Express went on to compete for the national title and won by a very strong lead over the other contenders.

Representatives received the award on behalf of FDOT during AASHTO’s Annual Meeting in Palm Desert, California on Sunday, October 25th, 2009. The award, which also comes with a cash prize of $10,000 will be used to support a charity or academic program chosen by our Agency.
