“I’m excited about joining the Bowman Team and working to drive success for business operations locally and nationally with both our public and private sector clients,” said Brian J McPartlin.
Brian is the former Executive Director of the Illinois State Toll Highway Authority, which is Illinois’ 294-mile toll road system serving more than 1.6 million motorists daily. As Executive Director, he managed and coordinated an agency with over 1,700 employees and an annual budget with revenues of $636 million.
He helped draft and implement a 10-year, $6.3 billion congestion relief program to rebuild and restore 90% of the Tollway system, which added system-wide capacity and extended I- 355 South by 12.5 miles, ahead of schedule and under budget. He also oversaw the conversion of 22 mainline toll plazas from a barrier system to Open Road Tolling (ORT). Prior to being named Executive Director, Brian served as the Tollway’s Chief of Administration, which involved oversight of Labor Relations, Employee Services, and Administrative Services.
