Everyone and everything needs to move - and our mobile society demands more innovative transportation every day. The Transportation Design of the Year award recognizes the newest innovations in transportation - public, private, industrial and commercial.
We're searching for the top designers of trains, planes, automobiles, truck and buses. Whether your entry is a self-driving car, a solar powered vehicle, or a new bus design that moves people and products more efficiently and sustainably, we're looking only for the best.
MUSE believes that sustainable and efficient transportation is the wave of the future. Submit your transit prototype today.
Architects, builders, contractors, developers, engineers, business owners are encouraged to submit work that is in prototype or complete*.
Winners are determined by one entry, and not an entire body of work, so careful selection should be observed.

* You may submit an entry into multiple categories at the same time. The first Category will be charged as per the original submission fee. Additional categories (2 or more) will be charged as such.
Rather than increasing the fee for each entry, fees are only charged in order to cover administrative costs like printing, mailing and data organization. For this reason, each participant is charged a flat $30 administration fee. When all participants pay the same low fee, those submitting more than one entry will actually pay less than if fees were on a sliding scale.
PROJECT DATE
Work submitted must have been created within the last 5 years.
