TRB Seeks Nominations for Sharon D. Banks Award

The Transportation Research Board (TRB) is seeking nominations for the Sharon D. Banks Award for Humanitarian Leadership in Transportation. The deadline is Aug. 31.

The award, inaugurated in 2002 and presented biennially, will be presented at the TRB 93rd Annual Meeting in January 2014.

Banks was the general manager of AC Transit, Oakland, CA, from 1991-1999 and served as chairwoman of the TRB Executive Committee in 1998. She was an active member of APTA and served on the Legislative Committee. She died in 1999.

Banks was nationally known for her personal integrity, nurturing and mentoring young transportation professionals, and bringing together people of diverse backgrounds and commitments. This award honors others who exemplify her ideals of humanity and service.

TRB established the award with the encouragement and support of DOT. Other contributors to the award include APTA, AC Transit, the Conference of Minority Transportation Officials, and the California Transit Association.
