1. 2025 Infrastructure Report Card Distribution Tracking

In February, ASCE Texas Section released the 2025 Texas Infrastructure Report Card (TxIRC). A tool was also created to help our team track our efforts in distributing the TxIRC to agency, government, and elected officials. To help us get that information, we ask that you and your volunteers fill out the form linked below whenever you share the TxIRC.

Why Attend CECON 2025?

At CECON, we believe in the power of shared stories and experiences. We asked fellow civil engineers why they chose this profession, joined ASCE, and attended the conference. They shared that a passion for building, improving communities, and problem-solving drew them to civil engineering. ASCE membership offers professional growth, networking, and a collective voice in public policy. Attending CECON provides access to cutting-edge learning, collaboration opportunities, recognition for achievements, career advancement, and a strong sense of community. Join us at CECON 2025 to be inspired, gain insights, and connect with like-minded professionals dedicated to excellence in civil engineering.
