South Dakota Transportation Hall of Honor Committee Accepting 2025 Nominations
PIERRE, S.D. – The Transportation Hall of Honor Committee is accepting nominations for review and consideration for induction into the South Dakota Transportation Hall of Honor. The purpose of the Transportation Hall of Honor is to recognize individuals who have made a lasting, valuable, and/or unique contribution to South Dakota’s air, highway, public transit, or rail transportation system.
“The committee seeks nominees who have gained the admiration of their peers and earned distinction in the transportation field,” says Transportation Secretary Joel Jundt, who also serves as the Transportation Hall of Honor Committee Chairman. “This is a milestone year for the Committee as we prepare to induct the one hundredth person into the Hall of Honor.”
Contributions to consider when submitting a nomination are statewide technological innovations, political activity, legislative accomplishments, creativity, time and cost saving initiatives, and economic impact on behalf of public transportation efforts throughout South Dakota.
Anyone is welcome to submit a Transportation Hall of Honor nomination. Please find the Hall of Honor Nomination Form and the complete list of Hall of Honor Inductees on the South Dakota Department of Transportation (SDDOT) website at https://dot.sd.gov under Featured Resources.
