The Georgia Department of Transportation has released the list of projects selected from the Fall 2018 RTAG submittals. Congratulations to the selected projects! Thanks to everyone who submitted a Research Needs Statement (RNS). The research community was highly engaged, with approximately 73 submitted needs statements. GDOT research staff is currently contacting the project PIs and setting up the next steps in the process.
The opening of the Fall 2019 RTAG RNS call will be announced later this year. Announcements will be distributed through the GTI mailing list and GTI website.
Please feel free to contact David Jared (djared@dot.ga.gov) if you have any questions regarding the project selection process or Michael Hunter (michael.hunter@ce.gatech.edu) if you have any questions regarding GTI.
