Transportation construction companies from three states were recognized for their outstanding employee safety programs during the American Road & Transportation Builders Association's (ARTBA) National Convention in Savannah, Ga. The awards were presented during a Sept. 23 luncheon hosted by ARTBA's Foundation.

Finalists were selected based on objective information provided to ARTBA that demonstrated outstanding safety performance. Judges chose two finalists in each of three categories, based on employee hours worked during the previous year, to compete for the award during the association's meeting.
Representatives from each company made presentations at the convention to a panel of industry professionals.
