DISCLAIMER: There is no guarantee that a submitted research idea will be selected by the Clear Roads TAC for funding as a research project. Submitted ideas may be significantly altered by Clear Roads during the project scoping process. Selected ideas will be developed into Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and posted by Minnesota DOT for competitive bid. Research ideas will be shared among the Clear Roads membership (36 state DOTs), so please do not include any proprietary data or information that you do not want made available to the public. Researchers (universities, consultants, etc.) are welcome to submit ideas for consideration; however, please keep in mind that research contracts may not be awarded to the original submitter.
