Reach the Transportation Design &
Construction Center of Influence
The American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA) is where the top executives from
highway and bridge contractors, engineering firms, traffic safety companies, materials and services
firms, heavy equipment manufacturers, researchers, educators and public officials all come together
under one roof to move the industry forward. ARTBA focuses exclusively on building and protecting
the transportation infrastructure market.
ARTBA’s nearly 6,000 members are among the most influential people and companies in the
industry. And because ARTBA members are vested in the association’s cause, they are actively
involved and engaged. They rely on ARTBA for federal legislative, safety, environmental and
regulatory news impacting transportation development.
Size of the Market is Significant
• Transportation construction generates $354
billion in total annual economic activity for the
nation—the equivalent of 2.25 percent of Gross
Domestic Product.
• A total of $121.3 billion in highway, bridge, ports
and waterways, airport runways and terminals,
transit and rail construction work was completed
in the United States during 2013.
Reach Your Target Audience
• Three-quarters of the top 50 transportation
contractors on the ENR top 400 contractor list are
ARTBA members. All ARTBA contractor members
on the list account for over 58% of reported
transportation-related revenues.
• 80 percent of the world’s 20 largest equipment
manufacturers are ARTBA members.
• ARTBA members account for nearly 85 percent
of transportation related revenues, or $13.4
billion, for the top 150 transportation planning
and design firms on the ENR top 500 list.
Why Advertise with ARTBA?
• 19,862 federal, state, and local transportation
officials and safety professionals receive the
digital“Transportation Builder.”
“Transportation Builder”Readers Make
Purchasing Decisions
• Transportation construction contractors spend
nearly $7 billion annually in equipment
purchases, leases and rentals, and other capital
investments.
• On average, transportation construction
contractors spend 10 times more on equipment
and capital investment annually than general
construction firms. The average ARTBA
contractor annually spends over $500,000 on
equipment and capital investments.
Growing Your Market
• Advertising in ARTBA publications is a unique
opportunity to support the mission of the only
national association that works exclusively to
grow and protect the U.S. transportation design
and construction market. Increased federal
investment in surface transportation provides
new market opportunities for industry firms.
There are a variety of reasons why industry firms make ARTBA’s publications a key part of their
advertising strategy.
