Last week, during the National Pavement Expo in Charlotte, NC, our own Gabe Vitale, owner of C&L Sweeper Services in Jackson, NJ, was presented with the first-ever Sweeper of the Year award. NPE in conjunction with and Pavement Maintenance & Reconstruction Magazine established nine industry awards which will be given to recognize individuals and companies. These awards were presented to recipients who have enhanced the paving and pavement maintenance industry through their professionalism, dedication to education, pursuit of excellence, and development of equipment, tools or materials.
The Pavement staff, in conjunction with the Pavement Advisory Board, evaluated nominations and presented the inaugural award winners during a ceremony at the start of the National Pavement Expo on January 28, 2016. Pavement’s February issue will profile all of the award winners and industry leaders.
