The US subsidiary of HOCHTIEF Solutions received the prestigious awards in two categories: The Presidio Parkway project in California took the "North American Transportation Deal of the Year", while the HOCHTIEF team was honored with the "North American Developer of the Year" award.
The official award presentations took place on Thursday, March 7 during a ceremony at Cipriani Wall Street Center in New York City.
