National Transportation Strategic Research Plan

This is one of two implementation documents for the National Transportation Science and Technology Strategy. It deals with the areas of basic or enabling research which are necessary to provide the technological foundation for new and improved transportation systems. The Plan considers the roles of a broad range of parties involved in the transportation enterprise: Federal government agencies; State, local and tribal agencies; academic institutions, and the private sector. It focuses on seven areas of enabling research: human performance and behavior; advanced materials and structures; computer, information, communication systems; energy, propulsion, and environmental engineering; sensing and measurement; analysis, modeling, design and construction tools; and social and economic policy issues.
