Photographs will be judged in several transportation-themed categories: Motor Vehicles, Roadways & Bridges, Pedestrians & Bicycles, Ships & Boats, Trains, and Planes. $500 cash prizes will be presented to the winners of both the People’s Choice and the Best Overall Photograph award.

Winning photography submissions must prominently feature people designing, constructing, using and enjoying the nation’s transportation systems. All entries must represent the positive effects of all modes of transportation on individuals and communities. Photographs which include recognizable individuals must be accompanied by a Faces of Transportation Model Release form regardless of category; all photos must include a caption that describes the scene and the theme under which the entry is placed. Failure to meet these requirements may lead to disqualification.

All entries must be received by August 25, 2017. Judging will begin the same day. The general public will vote for the People’s Choice Award photograph.

The winners of the 2017 Faces of Transportation competition will be announced in the Fall.
