The FHWA has an ongoing need to partner with the State Departments of Transportation (DOTs) through the Federal aid highway program and in other areas to ensure that the results of highway research are disseminated throughout the transportation industry. The work under the proposed cooperative agreement includes the following activities: developing and conducting annual meetings; conducting reviews of the research and technology program; organizing and conducting conferences and workshops; acting as a liaison between the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO), the FHWA, and international organizations; and disseminating highway research results. Completing this work successfully requires an organization with an advanced knowledgebase that is positioned to reach those throughout the transportation industry to promote the transfer of information on best practices and to disseminate highway research results. Further, this work requires the involvement of an unbiased organization to collect research results and, through organizing meetings, conferences, and workshops, review such research in an open forum and enable communication throughout the transportation industry on the findings from such research.
