摘要：	The recent establishment of the National Transportation Center at MST under the 'Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users,' expands the research and education activities to include alternative transportation fuels and other issues that are at the forefront of society and the national agenda. MST in partnership with MTI will establish a rural hydrogen transportation test bed for developing, demonstrating, evaluating, and promoting hydrogen-based technologies in a real-world environment. The State of Missouri is ideally suited to develop and demonstrate the proper operation of hydrogen highways in a rural setting, which represents over 25 percent of the nation's transportation needs and which is not well-represented in the current major national projects. A holistic approach with be taken to address not just the technology but also public perception, permitting, safety standards, and education and training. A key partner already engaged is the NASFM, who regards this project as an 'excellent candidate for the model approach to introducing hydrogen communities.' The tasks identified in five areas, viz. Infrastructure Development and Deployment, High-Pressure Composite Cylinders, Inspection and Monitoring, Statistically Validated Codes and Standards, and Safety, constitute a comprehensive research, development and demonstration program to address some of the challenges described in the U.S. Department of Transportation Hydrogen Roadmap 2005. / Supplementary Notes: Sponsored by Department of Transportation, Washington, DC.
