Portland, ME — Congratulations to the Transportation Research Board (TRB) standing committees that were recognized by the Technical Activities Council as Blue Ribbon Award committees. Blue Ribbon Awards recognize exemplary practices and associated volunteer efforts in the activities of standing committees. Blue Ribbon Award committees serve as role models, and both the committee chairs and members are available to share their experiences with others.

The Ecology and Transportation Committee, chaired by Alexander F. Levy of Arcadis-US, Inc., received an honorable mention for creating a newsletter for internal and external audiences. For more than a decade, Normandeau's Marcia Bowen has volunteered as the chair of the communications subcommittee, where she was editor for the newsletter and assisted with formatting and layout.

The 95th TRB Annual Meeting took place at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, in Washington, D.C. The meeting covered all transportation issues, with more than 5,000 presentations in more than 800 sessions. A number of sessions and workshops focused on the meeting's spotlight theme: Research Convergence for a Multi-Modal Future. The meeting attracted nearly 13,000 transportation professionals from throughout the United States and 70 other countries.
