Ultrahigh volume fly ash concrete (UHVFAC) for highway infrastructure

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

This research project will evaluate the feasibility, cost-effectiveness and benefits of using ultrahigh volume fly ash concrete (UHVFAC) for the construction and maintenance of highway structures and pavements. The environmentally…

A Continuous Flow-Through Water Quality Monitoring Systems for Highway Stormwater Management

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

Efficient and effective water-quality monitoring is key to understanding and setting water-quality objectives and meeting local, state, and federal stormwater regulations. Inaccurate representation of contaminants in urban runoff can lead…

Managing stormwater runoff in cold climate through improved training

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

As a major source of non-point source pollution, highway runoff has adverse effects on the adjacent aquatic resources if no measures are taken to remove the excessive contaminants accumulated from…

Cost-effective use of sustainable cementitious materials for stormwater management by DOTs

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

The proposed research provides an innovative multi-disciplinary approach to cost-effective management of storm water. DOTs needs effective tools to meet recently enacted federal (EPA) regulations for reducing the amount of…

Structural BMPs for managing bridge deck runoff in cold regions

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

This project will develop, install and field test the effectiveness of new structural BMPs specifically designed to manage runoff near one or two highway bridge decks, e.g., filters and biofiltration…

Pollinator dispersal and gene flow among rare plants fragmented by roads

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

This study would examine the response of pollinator movement and subsequent gene flow and reproductive fitness between and within rare endemic plant populations that are fragmented by roads by road…

Climate, Air Quality and Health: Linking Transportation Emissions to Impacts at Local to Regional Scales

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

Climate change may affect human health via interactions with air pollutants such as ozone and PM2.5. These air pollutants are linked to climate because they can be both affected by…

Dust-free technologies for surface preparation of concrete and steel

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

Identify and test technologies promising “dust-free” environments.  Suggested technologies include water-blasting and abrasive blasting with sponge/grit.  

Examination of the Environmental and Energy Benefits Derived from Elimination of Transportation Bottlenecks in the Northeast Region

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

Develop analytical tools and prepare recommendations for highway and rail infrastructure investments that will alleviate bottlenecks and produce environmental, energy and public health benefits.   Our proposed collaborative Green Corridor…

Effectiveness of management actions to reduce the spread of invasive plants from roadsides.

By ahardingMay 7, 2021Leave a comment

Assess management efforts to prevent or slow the spread of exotic plants into and away from roadsides. Research should stratify sites based upon ecosystem, soil fertility and time of disturbance.…
