Annual Sandbox Competition

Since 2020, the ITE Consultants Council has sponsored/hosted an annual sandbox competition open to both student and professional groups. The topic of the competition is determined by members of the Consultants Council in the fall of each year, focusing on a critical area of the transportation industry. Finalists are invited to the ITE Annual Meeting and Exhibition, and winners are announced during the Annual Awards Lunch.
