Steve Spender (Chair)
President IHE
"The Institute of Highway Engineers is delighted once again to be involved in the Highways Magazine Excellence Awards and as the Institute's new President I am honoured and pleased to be Chairing the Judging Panel for this year's event. The industry has faced a number of challenges over the last year with some severe weather conditions and the financial implications of severely constrained budgets but I hope that the number of the entries this year will be as strong as ever.
I am sure that this year's entries will also match the high standards of previous years and will demonstrate the high level of commitment, innovation and talent that exists within the industry, therefore making our judging role as difficult as ever."
