The American Society of State Highway and Transportation announced that Brandye Hendrickson is joining the association as its new deputy director. Hendrickson was previously the Federal Highway Administration's deputy administrator in July 2017 and served at acting administrator in 2017 and 2018.

"I'm excited about continuing to serve the transportation community in this new role and joining such a great team at AASHTO," said Hendrickson.
