The Arizona Transportation Institute (AZTI) is a collaborative initiative between Arizona's three state universities—University of Arizona, Arizona State University, and Northern Arizona University—and the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT). AZTI serves as a centralized resource for innovative transportation research, addressing critical challenges within Arizona's transportation systems.
This session will explore AZTI’s mission to streamline research processes, develop cutting-edge technologies, and support economic growth through safer and more equitable mobility solutions. Currently, AZTI is leading eight projects addressing critical topics such as emerging infrastructure and materials, safe traffic operations, efficient database management, and transportation resilience to natural conditions. This session will also highlight AZTI’s transformative role in Arizona’s transportation landscape through strategic partnerships and multidisciplinary collaboration.
