ASHE is a nationally recognized, non-profit organization incorporated into Pennsylvania in 1958. Our mission is "To provide a forum for members and partners of the highway industry to promote a safe, efficient and sustainable highway system through education, innovation and fellowship."

Our members and industry professionals are experiencing lifestyles that are busier than ever and our daily schedules are full of professional and family obligations. In an ever growing “Social” society, we often find ourselves too busy to be “Social” except via electronic media. Our industry has a depth and breadth of skill sets and experience encompassing planning, design, construction and inspection of transportation infrastructure and we need to have these folks connect. I feel it is incumbent on the professional societies to encourage interaction and face-to-face networking within our industry between owners, contractors and consultants. The Mid-Allegheny Section of ASHE has identified this trend and as such a primary goal of our section has been to recognize the need for networking and fellowship.
