Institutional Change

This project identified knowledge gaps and other barriers to wider implementation of permeable pavements. It involved a workshop that discussed plans for improved pavement policy.

This research project will gather empirical data, agency reports, and other credible data sources to improve quantification methods used to estimate greenhouse gas emission reductions.

This white paper project will identify some common level of service-based fee structures and analyze ways that the same structure can be applied to a vehicle miles travel reduction program.

The proposed research examines the financial state of the practice for sidewalk asset management in the United States, taking economic, social and legal costs into consideration.

This dissertation studies transportation-related barriers and spatial accessibility regarding national park tourism, focusing on differences between racial/ethnic groups.

This project studies rural road networks that are vulnerable to extreme weather events and are necessary for accessing food.

This white paper analyzes evidence on the economic benefits of placemaking efforts that prioritize pedestrian and non-motorized access and that, at times, reduce vehicle miles traveled. The researchers summarize evidence on how locally oriented placemaking efforts are associated with benefits that help boost local economies.

For this research, the researcher proposes to evaluate the effects of transportation fuel subsidies on air quality using economic and econometric modeling. In particular, they will analyze the impact of the Iranian energy subsidy reform on air quality using a regression discontinuity design.
