Innovative Transportation Projects at TxDOT
From time to time, Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) districts produce Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) and other technology and process innovations that improve roadway/worker safety, improve roadway efficiency, and/or produce cost savings. This contract leverages the capabilities of Texas Transportation Institute (TTI) to identify, develop, and scale district innovations that are ready to deploy across the state, so that TxDOT can capture the full benefit of 25 different districts with particular insights, creativity and innovative thinking. TTI will investigate innovative district practices and develop plans at a district and statewide level to share and scale innovation across the state. By harvesting the real-world knowledge already contained within TxDOT, new avenues will open to improve roadway safety, efficiency and produce cost savings impacting the millions of travelers across the state. Additionally, by cataloging and bringing together these innovations, divisions and districts can work together to make sure that solutions are developed in such a way that unified systems and interoperability occur throughout the state.
