• Description:
  The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has a history of success in playing a lead role in national highway research and technology (R&T). In an effort to further improve its R&T Program, the Agency developed a Corporate Master Plan for Research and Deployment of Technology & Innovation (Plan). The purpose of the Plan is to continue to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of R&T, including the end goal of deploying and implementing technologies and innovations that improve the quality, cost-effectiveness, and timeliness of products, procedures, processes, and practices. The Plan presents a role, new focus, and clear direction for the Agency's R&T Program within the context of improving highway transportation. In addition, it outlines FHWA's corporate strategy for investing in and conducting research in cooperation with its partners and stakeholders. While the Plan does not contain detailed or descriptive "how to" language, it clearly lays out guiding principles, commitments, and key actions to strengthen the FHWA roles as innovator and leader in national highway R&T.
