Across Kentucky, local transportation crews are always finding smarter, safer, and more efficient ways to get the job done.
The 2026 Build a Better Mousetrap Competition is your chance to share those homegrown solutions and help spotlight the innovation happening in our local agencies.
Whether it’s a custom-built tool, a modified piece of equipment, a new process, or a creative fix that saves time, improves safety, or reduces costs, we want to hear about it.
Submissions may fall under categories such as Innovative Project, Bold Steps, Smart Transformation, Pioneer, and Putting Families First Innovation.
Selected entries may receive local recognition, T2 swag, and the opportunity to be shared at the national level through the FHWA LTAP network.
Submit your entry by June 5, 2026.
Show how Kentucky leads the way in transportation innovation.
