The Strategic Highway Research Program (SHRP) was established by Congress in 1987 as a 5-year, $150 million research program to improve the performance and durability of our Nation's highways and to make them safer for motorists and highway workers. As a follow-on program to SHRP, Congress established in the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 programs to implement SHRP products and to continue SHRP's long-term pavement performance (LTPP) program. FHWA is taking the lead in this effort through its SHRP Product Implementation Program and its adoption of SHRP's LTPP program.
