The Engineering & Public Works Roadshow makes its third stop tomorrow, Sept. 19, at the Able Pump Station in Dallas, Texas.
The pump station in downtown Dallas won awards from both the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) and the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE) since its completion in 2019, and has been credited with providing 100-year flood protection to approximately three square miles of high-profile land that was historically vulnerable to severe flooding events from the Trinity River.
APWA President-Elect Lisa Rapp is scheduled to speak at the event, which will be attended by city and federal officials. U.S. Rep. Marc Veasey (D-TX-33) is scheduled to make a virtual appearance.
The Roadshow marks the first time the leading organizations representing the designers and public operators of America’s infrastructure have joined together to shine a spotlight on what successful infrastructure investment means for the nation’s economy, jobs, the environment, and our future.
