The CIHT Yorkshire & the Humber Awards celebrate the very best the region offers across the key areas of highways and transportation. They are open to everyone: members and non-members; small and large organisations; public, private and third sector. The Awards aim to recognise the outstanding contribution that good projects and people make to our daily lives.
Due to Covid-19 the awards will still happen this year, but they will be virtual in nature. All award winners will be announced in a virtual ceremony on Friday 25th September 2020. We will confirm details of that in due course.
We would like to thank our sponsors Graham, Knights Plc and Colas for their continued support for the region in this challenging year.
