Since 1902, ARTBA has been the recognized industry leader in growing and protecting the federal transportation construction market. The association is also a leader in supporting innovative measures and public-private partnerships to finance transportation improvement projects beyond the core highway program. Here's why membership in the association's Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) in Transportation Division makes sense:

The annual ARTBA Public-Private Partnerships in Transportation Conference-one of the industry's largest on the topic-showcases the latest information on private participation in transportation infrastructure financing. For over 20 years, ARTBA has organized this "must attend" program, which includes session topics on cutting-edge issues such as the return of road concessions to the U.S. market and non-debt financing of public-private transportation projects. You will receive a significant registration discount to the conference when you become an ARTBA member.

You will have a direct role in federal transportation legislative and regulatory policy that is essential to your business. As reauthorization of SAFETEA-LU is in progress, there are many issues related to its implementation of concern to the PPP Division.

You will receive invitations to special PPP member-only events at the ARTBA Building. ARTBA hosts a series of PPP member-only events that will examine some of the leading issues for the public-private partnership transportation market. You don't want to miss out on these excellent networking opportunities!

You will gain unlimited business development opportunities. With over 5,000 members from the most successful and active companies in the transportation construction industry, ARTBA provides fertile ground for your business development activities.

You will receive vital information to help you identify business opportunities and market trends. You will get special in-depth economic market reports such as the "Monthly U.S. Transportation Construction Market Report," a comprehensive analysis of F.W. Dodge data providing detailed information on the number and value of new transportation project contracts awarded by state and local transportation departments, by mode and state.

"Knowledge is Power." The weekly ARTBA "Washington Newsline," "Washington Update," Transportation Builder magazine and division meetings will give you the information you and your firm need about transportation developments. You'll also have access to ARTBA safety information and updates on federal policies and regulations.
