ATSSA will be on the National Mall alongside others engaged in construction of our nation’s infrastructure May 14-16.

Join thousands on Mother’s Day for the kickoff of the Celebration of Construction on the National Mall.  Bring the kids to see the construction vehicles spread across the area between the U.S. Capitol and the Washington Monument and hear ATSSA President & CEO Stacy Tetschner as a panelist for a discussion of job site and roadway safety.

This free event provides an opportunity for individuals, families, government officials and policy makers to see the equipment and technology responsible for the country’s building and transportation sectors. The event also provides a chance to learn about careers in these industries.

TAMPA, Florida (Feb. 15, 2022) – Three exhibitors at ATSSA’s 52nd Annual Convention & Traffic Expo received Innovation Awards today in recognition of new products that contribute to the industry’s mission of advancing roadway safety and working Toward Zero Deaths.

The new products from 2021 were evaluated by a panel of judges made up of department of transportation personnel. Judges reviewed 14 items from companies across the U.S. and Canada as part of the New Products Rollout.

The Innovation Award winners were honored today during ATSSA’s Circle of Innovation where videos explaining their products were shown to the roadway safety infrastructure industry. Items were evaluated on the criteria of lifesaving qualities, degree of need, innovation, design and eligibility under the Highway Safety Improvement Program.

Generous support from PPG/Ennis-Flint, 3M and Ver-Mac made a significant difference for The ATSS Foundation as it started 2021.

The Foundation was forced to cancel its two biggest fundraisers of the year due to COVID-19 restrictions so the assistance from the companies during ATSSA’s recent Convention & Traffic Expo makes a big impact, said Foundation Director Lori Diaz.

Traditionally, The Foundation holds its golf and sporting clays events in conjunction with the Convention but the Convention was forced to move to an online platform as a result of the pandemic, which also meant the two popular events weren’t held.

ATSSA member Ver-Mac is auctioning two roadway safety products with all money raised going to The ATSS Foundation.

Bidding is now open and the auction runs through Feb. 18 at 3 p.m. EST.

The items being auctioned are:

• A PCMS-1500 Pro Series G3 portable changeable message sign that can be used for highway construction, smart work zones and special events.
• A Smart Arrowboard -25 LED, which is a trailer-mounted arrow board that can be used for highway construction, utility work, smart work zones and by departments of transportation (DOTs).

ATSSA member Ver-Mac has suspended its auction of a portable message sign in light of the coronavirus pandemic currently facing the nation and world.

The auction had been scheduled to run through March 27 with proceeds benefitting the American Traffic Safety Services Foundation.
