The second Strategic Highway Research Program (2006-2015)

SHRP 2 was created to find strategic solutions to three national transportation challenges: improving highway safety, reducing congestion, and improving methods for renewing roads and bridges.

The program's origins and objectives are presented in Special Report SR 260: Strategic Highway Research: Saving Lives, Reducing Congestion, Improving Quality of Life. The initial research plans are summarized in NCHRP Report 510: Summary Report: Interim Planning for a Future Strategic Highway Research Program.

An implementation strategy is outlined in TRB Special Report 296: Implementing the Results of the Second Strategic Highway Research Program: Saving Lives, Reducing Congestion, Improving Quality of Life.

Research was focused in four areas--safety, renewal, reliability, and capacity. The program carried out 145 research projects and produced 130 products as well as 132 research reports. The SHRP 2 Product Chart briefly describes each SHRP 2 product and its application. Access to these products is available through the focus area links below.
