The National Center for Transit Research (NCTR) at the University of South Florida (USF) assessed the implementation status and identified the outcomes and impacts of the results of 30 Florida Department of Transportation -sponsored NCTR research projects that concluded in fiscal years 2008--2010. The study attempted to address three primary research questions.
1. How well do research results reach the customer
2. How are recipients of the research findings putting the research into practice
3. If research is put into practice what impacts are realized
The report includes a brief summary of each of 30 NCTR-funded research projects, a summary of the research findings, a status update, and, where possible, a discussion of the impacts of each project.
The report concludes with a discussion of process improvements that might be implemented to ensure future research projects produce the desired impacts.
