Project Scope
|
This project will develop research program proposals that would address major questions and technical issues regarding transportation strategies to mitigate energy consumption and GHG emissions, replace or supplement fuel taxes with an alternative user fee system, and adapt to expected climate changes. Given the relatively short time frame available for the project, the research program proposals will be conceptual in nature. Nonetheless, they will have enough detail to provide policy makers with information about the nature of the research programs that are needed, the approximate cost of these programs, and how they could be most effectively organized to deliver implementable results in a timely manner.
The project is sponsored by the Transportation Research Board (TRB) and the TRB National Cooperative Highway Research Program.
The approximate starting date for the project is September 2008.
A final report will be issued at the end of the project in approximately seven (7) months.
