ICPA Concrete Paving Workshop & Paving Awards

The Iowa Concrete Paving Association’s 58th Annual
Concrete Paving Workshop at the Holiday Inn
Des Moines-Airport/Conference Center on February 2-4 2022.
 
The ICPA Board of Directors kicked off the 3-day workshop with the election of Jeremy Bahe, Croell, Inc., as their 2022 Chairman during the first day of the Workshop.

​The Concrete Paving Awards Luncheon, which highlights the “best of the best” concrete paving projects within the state of Iowa began with three special awards given. The first to Buchanan County, in recognition of their 200th mile of paved concrete. They become the 7th county in Iowa to achieve this momentous milestone. The 2020 ACPA National Lifetime Pavement Recognition Award was given to Washington County, in recognition of the long-term performance of W61 Riverside Road. Lastly, the 2021 Sustainability Award was presented to Manatt's, Inc. and Poweshiek County for their use of environmental friendly PCC overlay mix design. The luncheon continued with the recognition of 84 projects nominated for the 2021 Concrete Paving Awards. The ICPA and the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT) jointly evaluated and recognized projects as the best concrete pavements built in 2021. Plaques were presented in 18 categories to personnel from the companies dedicated to the winning projects.
