For transportation engineers (road and bridge designers, traffic operations, drainage, materials, and construction), environmental analysts, conservation planners, landscape architects, transportation planners, and transportation policy makers—those professionals on the frontline of improving the performance and sustainability of our streets and highways.

Held in cooperation with the U.S. DOT Federal Highway Administration and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and
in collaboration with the Institute of Transportation Engineers and AASHTO.

This conference responds to the rapidly growing interest and activity in sustainable transportation by sharing information on leading-edge environmental stewardship and sustainability principles and practices. Join us to explore many of the most important new concepts in the field—including context sensitive solutions, sustainability for transportation projects, and the complete street approach to development—practical applications, and case studies.

The Environmental Water Resources Institute (EWRI) of ASCE is a co-sponsor of this event
