About the Ray Fisher Award for Technical Excellence
The Ray Fisher Award for Technical Excellence recognizes an individual for technical excellence in the broader transport industry. Previously known as the RA Award for Technical Excellence, it was renamed in 2019 to honor our former President and Life Member, Ray Fisher. To be eligible, a nominee’s field of contribution must be in a technical or scientific area relevant to transport in Australia. Their contribution must be outstanding, measured directly in terms of impact on the industry, including the transformational change to the industry.
Jamie Egan, President of the Australian Society for Concrete Pavements said “Geoff has been a tireless advocate for concrete pavements and one only needs to looking at the current TfNSW specifications, guides and standard details which Geoff had many of stewardship over, it is a well deserved award”.
