The Volpe National Transportation Systems Center

Welcome to the Volpe Center's web site. The Center is part of DOT's Research and Innovative Technology Administration and is an innovative, federal, fee-for service organization. Our mission is to improve the Nation's transportation system. Our work is performed primarily for DOT, as well as other federal agencies and state, local, and international entities.

Since October 15, 2007, the site has been sporting a new look, showing the Volpe Center as an integral element of DOT's Research and Innovative Technology Administration (RITA). Keep an eye out for more changes as we continue to improve content and add functionality. We are interested in your comments and how we can best serve you.
