During the '50s and '60s, CMT hones its highway skills when they are called on to contribute to the nation's new interstate highway initiative.

In 1964, CMT incorporates and begins a program of transitional ownership through stock offerings to principal employees. This move preserves the firm's identity that is based on the values of its three founding members and continues to the present day.

In the '70s, CMT responds to the challenge of meeting more stringent environmental standards by developing innovative solutions in civil design. Their work earns industry awards in such areas as water and wastewater treatment, pavements and design.

The firm continues to make its mark in the '80s, in part through its contribution to significant advancements in airport pavement design. A new Aviation Planning Group is also established during this time.

CMT reorganizes itself in the '90s to become a more market-oriented firm. Strategic planning efforts lead the firm to foresake the traditional organization by discipline for a new structure that focuses on its four core markets: Aviation, Highways & Bridges, Water & Wastewater, and Land Development.
