         In late 2008, a chapter of the ASCE Transportation and Development Institute was formed under the Louisiana Section to serve all of the members of our state. It is called the ASCE – T&DI Louisiana Chapter and during the first executive meeting held on November 18, 2008, Mr. Om Dixit was elected to serve as Chairman. 

         Nationally, there are currently three T&DI Chapters. Those chapters are located within the Louisiana Section Colorado Section and East Central Branch of the Florida Section.
