rogram (LTAP) serves as
the Technology Transfer (T2) effort of the Federal Highway
Administrations Office of Professional Development.
The LTAP mission is to bridge the gap between research
and practice by conducting training sessions and
demonstrations and by serving as a clearinghouse for
information related to state-of-the-art technology in the
construction and maintenance of roads and bridges.
The LTAP network consists of 57 T2
Centers (one in each State, one in Puerto Rico, and six that
serve Native American Tribal Governments). The program
serves State, county and local highway and transportation
personnel.
LTAP is funded by FHWA, with matching funds from State
governments, universities, State highway agencies and
other organizations.
