About Concrete Pavement Week
National Concrete Pavement Week recognizes the vital role the concrete pavement industry plays in enhancing quality of life in our communities and supporting local economies. It affirms the contributions of this industry to each state and its observance offers a way to acknowledge the essential partnerships that drive our nation's infrastructure forward.
We celebrate the dedicated efforts of public works agencies, departments of transportation, engineering firms, contractors, and researchers who design and build our transportation networks. We also honor the contributions of material suppliers, equipment manufacturers, cement producers, and others whose innovations are critical to our success.
Concrete Pavement Week is dedicated to recognizing the collective impact of these organizations. It is a time to foster collaboration and appreciate the industry's commitment to building durable, safe, sustainable, and fiscally responsible communities for generations to come.

“The Interstate System works; in fact, it has exceeded its original scope and mission by revolutionizing the nation's logistics, changing the way we travel, and knitting the country's regions closer together. Thanks to constant redesign and reconstruction, the Interstate remains a vital part of the U.S. economy.”
