State Coordinators
  • Each DOT has a State Coordinator
  • Continuing role to identify DOT experts
  • Upcoming Issues
  • Locating potential test sites to evaluate roadway
    data collection technology
  • Locating geographic areas for naturalistic
    driving study
  • Current practices surveys.

Communications
  • Program Briefs are 4-page descriptions of current
    activities in each Focus Area. Available in PDF
    on the SHRP 2 Website
  • Quarterly Updates of overall program activities
    posted on the Website
  • Would you like an e-mail notice when new issues
    are available?

10
Implementation Report
  • Due to congress in February 2009.
  • Describe implementable products, customers,
    barriers, etc.
  • Recommend implementation methods, mechanisms.
  • Estimate required resources.
