What Is This Program?

There is urgent need to share with practitioners, state and local regulators and other interested public advanced technologies and best practices available to operate and ensure safety of bridges in all modes of transportation (highway, rail, waterways, etc.). A repository for such information and its dissemination in different formats, based on the concept of information clearinghouse is needed. The public as well as seasoned practitioners and regulators will benefit from such a repository/clearinghouse. Rutgers University was chosen as the Highly Recommended proposal for this cooperative agreement and award was made on August 1, 2024.
