The North Carolina Department of Transportation recognizes that the responsible development of transportation projects requires a balanced consideration of issues, partnership with stakeholders, and a commitment to innovation.

Projects presented will include success stories, the oh-so-difficult road of negotiation, and lessons learned the hard way.
