Marcellus Superintendent of Highways Donald MacLachlan was recognized for their outstanding commitment to training and education following 25 years of dedicated attendance at the Annual School for Highway Superintendents (Highway School) held at Ithaca College.
The Highway School is a training conference hosted jointly by the New York State LTAP Center – Cornell Local Roads Program and the Association of Towns of the State of New York.
Over 700 highway and public works officials from across the state attend each year for training, education, and to share ideas on transportation topics aimed at making New York State’s local roads safer and more cost efficient.
“These highway professionals from across the state come to the Highway School each year to gain valuable knowledge and share ideas aimed at making New York State’s local roads safer and more cost efficient,” David Orr, director, New York State LTAP Center – Cornell Local Roads Program, said.
The New York State LTAP Center – Cornell Local Roads Program provides training, technical assistance, and information to municipal officials and employees responsible for the maintenance, construction, and management of local highways and bridges in New York State.
It is one of 52 Centers established under the Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP) of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).
