Focus Daily News (DeSoto, TX) reports on the success of the North Texas Tollway Authority’s contractor diversity efforts, particularly the Relationships and Opportunities Advancing Diversity (ROAD) program. ROAD connects minority- or women-owned businesses with prime contractors that act as mentors. Anthony Coleman, NTTA’s Director of Business Diversity, tells the newspaper that the authority’s “diversity participation numbers are up 24 percent since the ROAD program started.”
