Research is at the heart of CAIT’s solution to optimizing the transportation infrastructure. Current research is addressing more durable and alternative pavement mixtures, renewable energy sources, Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) able to forecast and plan for transportation concerns, redesign of over-utilized transportation systems, as well as safety, security, and emergency management initiatives.

We are in a unique time where an aging infrastructure must be maintained, and in many cases redesigned. With each instance, there exists an opportunity to improve and to construct a longer-lasting, more durable and more efficient multimodal transportation system. Planners, design and maintenance professionals, elected officials, and citizens look to CAIT for answers to the challenges of one of the most densely populated and congested areas of the United States.

The Center continues to develop research opportunities through fostering partnerships. The research and development continues to expand into different realms of importance for transportation safety. Reaching out to areas such as highway lighting, emergency management, harbor management, dredging operations, and many more are only some of the ways the Center has been achieving its transportation research goals.
