Pretty exciting to do this ride along

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

An eye in the sky helping our crews watch their backs in freeway work zones. Huge thanks to @wistatepatrol & @WisconsinDOT for their partnership in Eau Claire County this spring!

Mike Hahn has made a name for himself in construction, especially since he never intended to get into it in the first place.

Super cool (and, honestly, a little scary) riding along w/ State Patrol for this mission last week. Thanks to @WisDOTnorthwest for hosting us. Recap video coming soon.

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

State Patrol pulled over 21 drivers doing an average of 19 MPH over the posted speed limit in the I-94 work zone near Eau Claire late last week. Some were going 20-24 MPH over. Thanks to WSP for your partnership in helping keep our crews safe!

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

Another eye-opening tour in the books. Humbling experience to be in the middle of that work zone.

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

Lawmakers who sign up to meet with WTBA members don't just get talking points, they get experiences that will stick with them. Like our I-94 bridge tour w/ Rep. Zimmerman last week, walking a work zone nestled between freeway traffic on all sides.

"You hold the power to prevent these crashes."

Safe actions truly save lives.

Thanks to all of our members and our partners at @WisconsinDOT, @ATSSAHQ, @IUOELocal139, & @LightTheHoan for helping spread the word during the 2026 Work Zone Awareness Week.

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

Going from prelim designs only 30% developed to finishing several new interstate bridges, ramps, and improving pavement in less than a year? It's possible with Design-Build! Awesome seeing Hoffman Construction's Cranberry Interchange project this week. Thanks for the tour!

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

Really cool to capture this last night. Loved the bright orange also reflecting off the still water below.

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

A bright and bold reminder: slow down, save lives.

The Hoan Bridge in Milwaukee glowed construction barrel-orange last night in honor of National Work Zone Awareness Week.

Special thanks to @LightTheHoan for helping us make this happen!

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

Nice day at the office!

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

Bunts, a squeeze, a sac fly.

Finesse, teamwork and selflessness.

Yep, the @Brewers won yesterday the same way our members go about THEIR work, too.

Great day at the ballpark for our annual WTBA outing!

There are many days where I ask why I’m still on this platform and then a gem like this comes along. Nicely done, Bucks social team.

[Milwaukee Bucks @Bucks]

Won the matchup between everyone’s two favorite cities.

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

All structure work should be done this calendar year. Great progress by our members!

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

The John Nolen Dr. bridge project is tricky, especially keeping traffic flowing along the most important way into downtown Madison. Good news: WTBA members ZTI (@Walbecgroup) and Edgerton Contractors are keeping things on-schedule. Thanks, @WisconsinDOT for the update this week!

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

Great way to head into the weekend. Congrats on the hard work, team!

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

A permanent Design-Build program is officially official! Thanks to @GovEvers for signing SB461 this morning and for his ongoing commitment to our industry, @RepAlexDallman & @SenMarklein), @WisconsinDOT, and @ACECWisconsin. Here's to the future!

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

Loved this trip. Every year gets better and better.

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

"It was perfect. It really was."

Couldn't agree more w/ our Past President Dan Zignego's assessment of our Annual Convention in Puerto Rico last month.

Check out the recap here!

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

"It is such a benefit for him to be here. Sec. Duffy is not only looking out for the admin’s priorities, but he is also sensitive to Wisconsin’s interests. It makes for a great and productive partnership." - Exec. Dir. Steve Baas.

Thanks @SecDuffy for the time in D.C. this week!

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

Awesome convo w/ @RobJonesJourney after his keynote at our convention last week. Seriously, listen to it. Perspective-altering advice.

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

“Things happen to people. You can’t change what’s happened in the past. What you can do is take extreme ownership of your own life.”

Awesome message from @RobJonesJourney & @EchelonFront at our Convention last week. Check out followup pod here > https://t.co/U7oWgdiLY7

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

Exciting, invigorating (and, yes, at times exhausting!) Annual Convention is in the books. What a great experience.

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

Four incredible days celebrating a fantastic 2025 and setting the stage for 2026 flew by in a HURRY! Thanks to outgoing prez Dan Zignego for a great Annual Convention in Puerto Rico. Here's to the year to come!

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

See ya next season, Bears.

[Wisconsin Transportation Builders Association @WTBAssociation]

Fantastic group at our first-ever WTBA PAC ice fishing excursion. (There WAS ice under all that slush, we promise!) Thankful for the comfortable temps, strong camaraderie, and support for our crucial legislative efforts toward building a strong, reliable transportation system

[Lane Kimble @lanekimble]

I remember finding out why that arrow meant and being in awe. So simple and yet it touches the billions of people who drive vehicles. Glad he’s getting some recognition, albeit posthumously.

[The Wall Street Journal @WSJ]

On a rainy day in Detroit, a Ford engineer got confused, then soaked—and inspired. It took decades before he got any credit. https://t.co/xChC50fFHv

Kyle Perkins’ story is painful, powerful, and poignant. Thank you, @620wtmj for the in-depth coverage and conversation.
