TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) has released a project brief that describes the systematic approach to the practice of risk management for rapid renewal projects that was developed by SHRP 2 Renewal Project R09.

TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) has released a project brief that summarizes SHRP 2 Reliability Project L01, which addressed opportunities to employ highway operational efficiencies by making it easier for transportation and other agencies to coordinate their activities. Reliability Project L01 produced a guide and a final report that synthesizes successful practices. The ...

TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) has released a project brief that summarizes SHRP 2 Project L13, which conducted a feasibility study to assess the technical, economic, and business aspects of developing, operating, and maintaining an archive for data from SHRP 2 Reliability and related research projects. The archive would make this data accessible to researchers and practi...

TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP s) has released a project brief that provides an overview of innovative and effective project management strategies and tools transportation agencies can use to help accelerate sound decision making during rapid renewal projects, which were developed by SHRP 2 Renewal Project R10: Project Management Strategies for Complex Projects.

TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) has released a project brief that describes how travel time reliability monitoring systems can help transportation agencies—especially those with transportation management centers—track performance of their system, understand impacts of various factors that influence travel time variability, provide credible information to system users, and ...

TRB’s second Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP 2) has released a project brief that summarizes SHRP 2 Renewal projects that are designed to help transportation agencies deal with the unique challenges that rapid highway renewal techniques present.
