ARRB and Queensland's Department of Transport and Main Roads have been recognised for innovation with their joint venture NACOE.

They were awarded the 2019 AAPA Queensland State Innovation Award for the National Asset Centre of Excellence Research Program (NACOE).

On Friday 14 June, Matthew Bereni, ARRB's Queensland State Technical Leader, and Jeffrey Lee, Principal Professional of ARRB’s Future Transport Infrastructure team, (both pictured above) attended the AAPA Queensland Industry Awards 2019 and were presented with the prestigious award.
