The Transportation Project of the Year award was established in 2020 to compliment ITE International’s Transportation Achievement Awards. Projects submitted to the District in the following categories will be reviewed by a panel of judges with one (1) project selected for each category:
- Complete Streets
- Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO)

The projects selected by the panel will be submitted to ITE International for their Transportation Achievement Awards. In addition, one of the five selected projects will be awarded the Western District’s Transportation Project of the Year award.
