Methods for State DOTs to Reduce Greenhouse Gas Emissions from the Transportation Sector
Many technical and institutional issues related to estimating and
reducing greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) lie across a wide spectrum of the activities
undertaken by state departments of transportation (DOTs).
The TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program's
NCHRP Web-Only Document 308: Methods for State DOTs to Reduce Greenhouse Gas
Emissions from the Transportation Sector
documents the research effort for an
NCHRP project that focused on developing a guide
for state DOTs on reducing GHG emissions. The result of this effort,
NCHRP WebResource 1:Reducing Greenhouse Gas Emissions: A Guide for State DOTs, presents tools, methods, and data sources for state DOTs to use in reducing
GHG emissions from the transportation sector.
Supplemental to the Web-Only Document is a
presentation summarizing the research.
