It's one thing to dream up a great idea. It's another thing to figure out how to implement it successfully. For the past two years, Route Fifty has honored individuals and teams who work in or with state, county and municipal governments across the United States, traveling the country and highlighting the best and brightest at live events. In 2018, we’re once again naming 50 finalists for their demonstrated abilities to implement a great idea that improves public sector services and the communities they serve.
