Outstanding Local Streets and Roads Project Awards Highlight Exceptional Efforts

摘要

Nearly every trip - whether by car, bus, bike or foot - begins and ends on a local street or road. The local system is critically important to the safety and mobility of the traveling public, emergency responders and law enforcement, and it also plays an essential role in the economy. The Outstanding Local Streets and Roads Project Awards program recognizes exceptional achievements made by California's cities and counties to preserve and protect the public's investment in the local street and road system. The League, the California State Association of Counties and the County Engineers Association of California (CEAC) sponsor the awards program. Launched in 2014, the awards highlight cities and counties using projects, programs, practices, innovative technologies and materials to achieve safety, preservation and sustainability goals for the local street and road systems. This article presents the 2014 winners, who received their awards at the League's Public Works Officers' Institute and CEAC Spring Conference.
