Systems and Civil and Environmental Engineering , chaired
the Transportation Research Board (TRB) Committee on the
Review of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT)
Strategic Plan for Research, Development, and Technology.
A report in the form of a letter
dated August 2, 2006, was submitted. It offers the committee's
view of what a strategic plan could and should be to help
the USDOT in future strategic planning. In addition, the
report provides advice on potential roles for the Research
