The 2016 Highway Geology Symposium will be held at the beautiful Cheyenne Mountain Resort in Colorado Springs. The Highway Geology Symposium was organized in 1950 to foster better understanding and closer cooperation between geologists and civil engineers in the highway industry. Since 1962, the Symposium has been hosted in western and eastern states on alternating years.
The 2016 Highway Geology Symposium Planning Committee Chair is Ty Ortiz with Colorado Department of Transportation. The Committee consists of local and national volunteers from various companies and agencies. 2016 will be the 67th Highway Geology Symposium.
