Pennsylvania High school students are invited to participate in the eighth annual PennDOT Innovations Challenge, which encourages students in grades 9-12 to present their solutions to real-world transportation challenges in a statewide competition. According to PennDOT, Pennsylvania averages more than 350 unrestrained fatalities on its roadways each year. For this year’s challenge, students will be asked to develop a cost-effective, innovative solution that can help PennDOT more effectively increase awareness of seat belt safety and change behavior to improve roadway safety.
Regional Innovations Challenge winners will be selected and invited to present their solutions to the PennDOT secretary and a panel of judges, who will determine the statewide winner. For this year’s challenge, four different organizations are providing a combined award of $6,000 to the statewide winning team.
