The purpose of the project is to develop a better understanding of sustainable transportation efforts in Canada, the U.S. and Mexico, with particular reference to performance measures. The workshop will…
Zinc is an important targeted constituent for Departments of Transportation (DOTs). The average concentration in highway runoff exceeds water quality objectives. For individual storms, the measured concentrations of total zinc in highway discharge…
Lead tire weights used to balance wheels may be a substantial source of lead in the highway environment. These weights are sometimes released from wheels and then abraded by traffic,releasing lead into…
The objective of this study is to determine the optimum timing and application rates of various deicing materials. A variety of standard tests can be conducted to determine the effectiveness of various chemicals, including:…
EPA has reported recently that the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus pollution entering our waters has escalated dramatically over the last 50 years, and that this trend will continue with US population…
The goal of the proposal is the development of a raster-based GIS model of the potential for the presence of prehistoric archaeological sites in the state of Indiana. The model…
The way one drives has an impact on the instantaneous and total emissions produced for a given trip. Driving style has an impact on microscopic (second by second) vehicle activities…
An efficient and robust surface highway transportation system is essential for continued economic growth of the US. Conversely, vehicle emission has increasingly resulted in adverse impact on air quality and environmental…
Introduction – The medium and heavy duty trucking industry sector could be responsible for 300-400 million metric tons of CO2 by 2030 (World Resource Institute). The same sector currently accounts for…
