• Abstract:
  Research and innovation are integral to the Federal Highway Administration’s (FHWA) mission. One of the primary roles of Federal transportation professionals is to serve as innovators for a better future. This role is supported by the world-class research conducted at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center (TFHRC) in McLean, VA. Throughout this publication are examples of the innovative research, services, and expertise at TFHRC. The successes at the McLean facility were achieved because the research and resulting products were not done in a vacuum, but were vetted with other researchers and institutions and addressed real-world problems. FHWA’s vision is to conduct research and provide products and services that are essential, indispensable, and needed by our customers and partners.
