Have an Innovative Idea?

CTIP wants to connect with the transportation community who has innovative ideas for new technologies, techniques or tactics to meet transportation needs. First and foremost, innovations should address an unmet transportation need, represent a new superior solution to that currently in use, or enable us to offer a significantly better value to our projects.
