LTAP and INDOT have developed a collaborative relationship to forward innovations that benefit both organizations. Focused on capturing innovative ideas from the grassroots level, INDOT and LTAP are developing a sharing platform that moves the agencies forward. In addition to discussing the sharing platform, we will also celebrate the inaugural Indiana Road School People’s Choice Award, which is given to an innovation selected by Road School attendees
