AdWheel: 36 Years of Marketing, Communications Awards

What’s so special about your organization’s special events? Does your app or social media presence bring increased awareness of public transit to your community? Is your branding an important way to keep your name before the public?

If so, you may receive recognition at APTA’s 36th annual AdWheel Awards, presented to honor the brightest and most innovative marketing and communications efforts in the public transportation industry.

Judging is currently underway for the annual competition, which recognizes excellence in public transportation marketing, advertising, promotion and communications. First-place award recipients will be notified by early September. The AdWheel Grand Awards, selected from among the first-place honorees, will be announced in a special ceremony on Monday, Oct. 5, during the 2015 APTA Annual Meeting in San Francisco.

APTA member public transit agencies and business members submitted 522 entries in six main categories: print, electronic media, campaign, social media, special events and a special recognition category for 2015 to highlight the 25th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The ADA ­category will recognize the organizations that best demonstrate the ability to communicate and market to people with disabilities.

Public transit systems are judged in categories based on the number of rides they provide each year.

All AdWheel entries will be available for viewing at an interactive exhibit during the Annual Meeting.
