Iowa DOT is part of a National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) project identifying high-impact communications strategies for research conducted by Midwestern state DOTs.
Iowa’s project Holding Strategies for Low Volume State Routes rose up as one example of valuable research with potential for wide dissemination and tech transfer.
The two-phase Iowa DOT research project evaluated the effectiveness and costs of a variety of pavement preservation techniques, giving Iowa’s engineers better decision-making power when it comes to making the state’s asphalt roads last longer with available funds.
To help spread the word about these research findings and impacts, the NCHRP effort included the creation of a short video featuring Iowa’s research project. You can view it on the Iowa DOT Research YouTube channel.
