Totem Award: Public Relations-Government for State Route 532 Corridor Improvement Project
Public Relations Society of America-Puget Sound
The SR 532 Corridor Improvements Project included on-the-ground community outreach and media relations support to help the 17,000 drivers who cross the bridge each day plan ahead to avoid backups. It also was a vital mechanism for keeping downtown Stanwood open for business through two busy years of construction.
