The three finalists chosen for each awards category win a trip to London to attend the Year in Infrastructure 2018 Conference, as guests of Bentley Systems.
“Our project being a 2017 winner is a game-changer for HNTB,” said HNTB Vice President Matthew Simon in a statement.
“It shows we are able to take this technology and use it for other projects and other pursuits. It puts HNTB in that trusted advisor position with our clients—to deliver these projects every day.”
The winners will be announced at an awards ceremony at the Hilton London Metropole in October.
