Through a varied human resource infrastructure, the CSU-UTC contributes to the body of knowledge associated with work zone safety and congestion abatement. Such research includes multi-disciplinary approaches whenever possible, while also striving for the technical and intellectual rigor expected of both professional business and academia. Throughout, CSU-UTC supported research remains consistent with the needs of industry and public safety advocates.

CSU-UTC research projects strive to meet the following criteria:

• Be responsive to national transportation strategies/priorities
• Demonstrate a level and certainty of matching support from non-federal sources
• Have objectives that advance the state of knowledge and practice in transportation
• Have a quality research team as determined by the research committee

Additionally, research proposals should:

• Be responsive to critical needs, challenges, and opportunities in our region,
• To some extent involve academic, government, and/or industrial partners other than the principle investigator’s colleagues at his/her institution, and
• Have some type of linkage of the research team to education and or/technology transfer projects/objectives of the UTC
