Abstract: The Highways for LIFE program was established by the 109th Congress within Sections 1101 and 1502 of the Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (Public Law 109-59). Within that law, under the topic "Technology Transfer and Information Dissemination," it states that "The Secretary shall conduct a highways for life technology transfer program." It further states that "The Secretary shall establish a process for stakeholder input and involvement in the development, implementation, and evaluation of the Highways for LIFE Pilot Program. The process may include participation by representatives of the State departments of transportation and other interested persons." Also, it states that, "The Secretary shall monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of any activity carried out under this section." A critical element in accomplishing these goals is to ensure that the technologies being deployed by FHWA and implemented by the States actually fill a specific need. Therefore, it is important that FHWA obtain feedback both before and after specific technologies are transferred.
