Join us tomorrow for the premiere of our new podcast, Public Works Radio! For our first episode, we'll be talking to APWA President Vic Bianes and Margaret Medellin about the challenge of getting the next generation interested in public works!

It's almost time to let you hear what we've been working on...

We're going on a social media break for the end of the year, but public works never stops! Public workers are there 24/7 for their communities, even when it interrupts their own family time. Make sure to thank the public works pros who keep our communities running!

Dominic Longobardi, past president of the American Public Works Association, wants to remind everybody this week to follow laws so that our roads can be made safe for people who are on them, especially after incidents happen. #CSRW #CrashResponderSafetyWeek @APWATWEETS

During Crash Responder Safety Week, we stand with all of our roadway responders, police, fire, ems, tow operators, and public works crews. We ask one simple thing: slow down, move over, and stay alert!

The APWA Awards program is all about recognizing the best in public works! If you know a public works professional, project, organization, or chapter worthy of recognition, nominations are now open! brnw.ch/21wXaGD
