摘要: The 1990s have seen the international technology exchange activities of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) shift from providing technical assistance to counterparts overseas to locating research and technology abroad that can be applied in the United States. Its International Technology Scanning Program looks for the best and most appropriate technology, management practices, and research that can be cost-effectively adapted to U.S. federal, state, and local highway programs. This process enables advanced technology to be developed and put into practice more quickly, and it makes more efficient use of research funds. Ultimately, the program provides better, safer, and more environmentally sound roads to the American public by implementing the best practices developed abroad. A sidebar lists the 21 FHWA reports produced from scanning tours, along with availability information.
