Abstract

This report will be of interest to public- and private-sector managers and others who oversee research programs in the transportation community. The report examines partnerships, both internal and external, currently being used in transportation research, and presents methods and approaches that produce synergies beneficial to the research and to the participant organizations as a whole. It discusses the types of state and provincial transportation research partnerships, the functions of participants in research partnerships, motivations for and the benefits of research partnerships, the structure and elements of research partnerships, and factors affecting the success of research partnerships, and provides information and examples to assist in the creation and management of research partnerships.
