PEOPLE IN THE PROFESSION
Obituaries
ITE recently learned of the passing of the following member. We recognize him for his
contributions to ITE and the profession, and
send condolences to his family.
Herman Haenel, P.E. (F) of Austin, TX, USA
passed away on June 13, 2020. He was a Life
Member of ITE. Herman graduated from the
University of Texas at Austin in June 1955, and
the Yale Bureau of Highway Traffic at Yale University in June 1959. He worked for the Texas
Department of Transportation (TxDOT) from
1955 until he retired in 1990. He then worked as
a consultant and taught traffic engineering and
management courses for the Texas Engineering
Extension Service at Texas A&M until 2000. His
work primarily involved traffic and transportation operations, management, and safety.
He enjoyed working on the implementation of traffic research. He also served in the
United States Army Reserves (Corps of Engineers) for eight years, retiring as Captain.
Herman was a member of ITE, serving as the
president of the Texas District of ITE (TexITE)
from 1989-1990, and served on the Transportation Research Board and the National
Committee on Uniform Traffic Control
Devices. Among various awards, he especially valued the TxDOT Gibb Gilchrist award
for outstanding service.
As Herman's friend James "Jim" C. Williams,
P.E., Ph.D. (F) recalls, "Herman emphasized
education. He organized many of schools the
district and city traffic engineers. He made
every effort to make sure that the traffic engineers in Texas had plenty of opportunities to
stay abreast. Herman had a great knowledge
and love of the profession. Not just the nuts
and bolts of it, but why we were doing what
we were doing. He had a significant impact
on those who worked for him."
ITE Journal would like to extend thanks to
TexITE for contributing this obituary.
