Accelerated performance testing on the 2021 ncat pavement test track with mnroad research partnership 931-041P

The Federal Highway Administration awarded a $250,000 Project Grant on July 2, 2024 to the Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT) through the Highway Research and Development Program (CFDA 20.200). The funding supports accelerated performance testing on the 2021 National Center for Asphalt Technology Pavement Test Track, in partnership with the MnROAD research facility. This project aims to advance pavement technologies and practices through extensive field testing and analysis of pavement performance under accelerated loading conditions. ALDOT's Office Engineer Division will oversee the engineering and technical aspects of this transportation infrastructure research initiative, which contributes to the program's objectives of improving highway safety, mobility, efficiency, and sustainability nationwide.
