This year’s Highways Awards have a judging panel spanning all four corners of the UK – with representatives from Transport Scotland, the Welsh Assembly, TransportNI, the Department for Transport, Highways England and the Institute of Highway Engineers.
Each judge has a wealth of experience in the highways industry and together they form an impressive group that will oversee a fair and open scoring system for each entry, designed to make the Awards equally accessible to both small or large organisations.
