Abstract:The Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) conducted a peer exchange with transportation research peers from six other State Departments of Transportation (State DOTs) on June 12-14, 2019 in Cambridge, MA. The peer exchange was conducted in accordance with 23 CFR 420, which requires that agencies use a portion of State Planning and Research (SPR) Program funds to conduct periodic peer exchanges to share and enhance their respective research program activities. The 2019 MassDOT peer exchange included representatives from Arizona DOT (ADOT), Georgia DOT (GDOT), Illinois DOT (IDOT), Minnesota DOT (MnDOT), Montana DOT (MDT), Utah DOT (UDOT), the Transportation Research Board (TRB), the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Massachusetts Division Office, and the University of Massachusetts—Amherst Transportation Center (UMTC). The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Volpe Center hosted and facilitated the peer exchange. This peer exchange brought together representatives from State DOTs, TRB, and the FHWA Massachusetts Division to identify innovative approaches and best practices in research, development, and technology transfer with a particular focus on three areas: (1) Management and delivery of an effective transportation research program; (2) Effective implementation of research results; and (3) Use of performance measures and communicating the value of transportation research.
