DDOT Research Strategic Plan: Building a Premier Urban Research Program

The Research, Development, & Technology Transfer (RDT) Program at the District Department of Transportation (DDOT) is in the process of setting a strategic direction to improve the effectiveness of its activities. The development of the RDT Strategic Plan, a research roadmap to achieve the agency?s vision, recognizes the vital contribution that research makes to the efficient and effective delivery of transportation services to the community.

The overarching vision is to leverage DDOT?s unique characteristics, location and relationships to transform the RDT program to a leader in applied urban transportation research.

This strategic plan lays out the blueprint for the research program for the next five years (2013-2018).
