Public Invited to Comment on Transportation Science and Technology Strategy -- The President's National Science and Technology Council Committee on Technology and its Subcommittee on Transportation R&D are working to develop a national strategy, which builds on the first Transportation Science and Technology Strategy. To accomplish this, the Committee is relying heavily on input from a wide range of stakeholders, including but not limited to transportation users and operators, State and local government agencies, research institutions, private organizations and the general public. We welcome your input into this process.
