A study of benefits, accomplishments, and resource needs of the Local Technical Assistance Program

This study was undertaken to document accomplishments of the Technology Transfer (T2) Centers, funded through the Local Technical Assistance Program (LTAP) of the Federal Highway Administration in partnership with State highway agencies, universities, and local governments. The benefits stated in this report were identified by the local government agencies through a random survey distributed in 39 States and through personal interviews conducted with local agency personnel in 15 States. The study profiles the transportation responsibilities of local governments, provides a functional and resource overview of T2 Centers, describes benefits in seven specific areas, documents cost savings, and provides testimonials from the personal interviews conducted. It also presents recommendations for future program areas, projects resource needs, and proposes specific 1998 source contributions.
