Transportation Trends and Current Research Activities
註釋Each year, Transportation Research Board (TRB) staff members visit every state highway and transportation department, many universities, transit and other modal agencies, and industry. The objectives of the field visit program are (a) to learn of problems facing the visited organization and to pass on information pertinent to the solution of these problems (information that is based on research or the experiences of other states, industry, or educational institutions); (b) to learn of research activities in progress or contemplated in order to inform the visited organization of similar research being carried out elsewhere, thus preventing duplication of effort; and (c) to identify new methods and procedures that might have application elsewhere. These annual visits provide the opportunity to collect and share transportation research information through direct personal interaction of TRB staff and the individuals visited. This Circular contains a summary of transportation trends and research activities identified during the FY '88 field visits. Eleven TRB staff members conducted these visits reaching hundreds of transportation professionals in all modes and subject areas.
