Fostering a Culture of Innovation

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has a long history and well-established culture of creating, finding, and sharing innovations. This tradition can be traced to the establishment of the agency as the U.S. Office of Road Inquiry in 1893. In the early days of road building, the office supported the Good Roads Movement by identifying best practices in the industry and helped spread those practices from State to State.
