The project will help centralize and assess evacuation routes, and assess their capacity
for evacuation. It will help inform infrastructure investment priority decisions, as it will identify the
road segments with the largest impact on the evacuation route/network performance.
This research will improve fundamental knowledge on transportation data analytics as well as the effective management of data and information infrastructure in transportation practice.
The CSULB Center for International Trade and Transportation (CITT) will write a white paper on introducing GIS technology to high school students. CITT will then develop the introductory GIS workshop for high school students with a focus on sustainable transportation.
Texas Southern University, in partnership with the University of Houston, will expand the Texas Department of Transportation’s Transportation Asset Management Plan which currently only includes pavements and bridges.
The researchers will develop a method for statewide modeling of noise and light intrusion into areas adjacent to roads to aid locating and designing crossings to maximize wildlife approach and use.
This project will identify the high-risk infrastructure and behaviors (like not wearing a helmet) behind the sharp rise in micromobility-related brain injuries, and use those findings to inform safety policy and a targeted public education intervention.
This research will address the urgent need for decarbonization in marine ports and the establishment of green shipping corridors to mitigate emissions and enhance environmental sustainability.
This project developed a tool that can help the public better understand the total cost of owning and operating a personal vehicle over the lifetime of that vehicle, from vehicle purchase to vehicle disposal.
This project will update the Vehicle Ownership and Operating Cost Calculator with new data, develop data ingestion procedures, and modify output formats to support economic assessments of roadway design alternatives.
