TALLAHASSEE, FL, UNITED STATES, June 9, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- As one of the fastest growing states in the country, safe and connected infrastructure is vital to enhance the quality-of-life for Floridians, strengthen the state’s economy, and keep Florida a global leader in transportation. To celebrate the exceptional infrastructure projects that are keeping Florida moving safely and efficiently, the American Council of Engineering Companies of Florida (ACEC Florida) and the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) recently awarded eight Outstanding Project Awards.

Presented annually, the Outstanding Project Award recognizes exceptional achievements by ACEC Florida member firms in accomplishing FDOT projects and studies in eight categories.

“Florida’s transportation future is bright thanks to the innovation and commitment to excellence that the FDOT team embeds into every project we undertake, and it’s an honor for those efforts to be recognized by ACEC Florida,” said Florida Department of Transportation Secretary Jared W. Perdue, P.E. “Alongside our partners, these projects are not only securing remarkable accomplishments for our industry, but for Florida’s communities as we work together to keep Floridians safe and goods moving.”

“We’re proud to recognize outstanding FDOT infrastructure projects, and the teams of engineering professionals working behind the scenes to help bring these projects to life.
