The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Office of the Assistant Secretary for Research and Technology (OST-R) is conducting an open “Call for Ideas” session on March 18, 2022, 1:30 – 3:00PM EST.
The purpose of this listening session is to obtain stakeholder input and research ideas to help inform the development of DOT's Research, Development, and Technology (RD&T) Strategic Plan for fiscal years (FY) 2022-2026. We welcome your views on USDOT's research vision, strategic goals, and priorities, and how our research programs can advance the transportation system of the present and future. The RD&T Strategic Plan will align with DOT’s Draft Strategic Framework.
We are soliciting research ideas in advance of the session and may call on you to share your idea during the event. Please register to attend and submit research ideas at: https://usdot.zoomgov.com/webinar/register/WN_oQL96GxpTMSHQ9_0Gdl4Fw.
Please help us shape our research plans at this pivotal moment in the transformation of the nation's transportation system.
