A closer look at truck crashes during severe winter weather in North Dakota is yielding clues on how to reduce risks and travel disruptions on the state’s interstate highways. The research was conducted by researchers at the Upper Great Plains Transportation Institute at North Dakota State University.
Researchers at the University of Colorado Denver found that mobile sensing capabilities found in newer iPhones can be a cost-effective way to assess if sidewalks, curb ramps, and other infrastructure are accessible to those with disabilities.
Research at South Dakota State University is leading to improved compaction of roadway base materials, resulting in time savings, safer testing procedures, and longer-lasting pavements.
