Several Central Pennsylvania engineering firms were honored recently by the American Council of Engineering Companies of Pennsylvania (ACEC/PA). 

The companies were honored at the ACEC/PA’s annual Diamond Awards for Engineering Excellence. Their award-winning projects combined safety measures, engineering, and designs. 

 

Roseline Bougher, president of ACEC/PA’s board of directors, said in a statement that engineering firms from across Pennsylvania submitted entries for design, safety, and engineering projects aimed at building better, stronger communities. 

 

“The selection process was difficult, but we believe these 12 awards and special honors represent the very best of Pennsylvania’s engineering consulting industry,” Bougher said. “We take great pride in watching our member firms bring these critical projects to fruition, often in the face of tough obstacles along the way. 

 

“It has been exciting to see these firms push themselves to achieve such fantastic results for their clients and truly work to create a better Pennsylvania.” 

 

Diamond Award-winning projects created needed facilities, improved upon and strengthened infrastructure, increased public safety, worked collaboratively with important clients, and remained conscious of their environmental impacts. 

 

Area award-winners and projects included the following: 

 

  • The Award for Transportation: McCormick Taylor for the completion of the Interstate 83 East Shore Section 1 project. 
  • The Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Award: Lancaster-based RETTEW Associates and Kleinfelder. 
  • The Client Distinction Award: Mike Keiser, former PennDOT deputy secretary for highway administration. 
  • The Best Panel Award: Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson for the King Street Station Renovations project in York. 
  • The Award for Special Projects: Mechanicsburg-based HDR Engineering for the completion of the I-579 Urban Open Space Cap project.
