HIGHWAY RESEARCH IN PROGRESS (HRIP)

Two developmental issues (September 1965 and April 1976) and eight annual issues (January 1968 - July 1975) were published. The first seven annual issues contained HRIS summaries of on-going research projects from the U.S. and non-U.S. countries. The eighth and final issue (1975) contained only HRIS summaries of on-going research projects in the U.S. The subjects of the research projects cited by the summaries pertain to highways and highway transport; to rural and urban non-rail transit; and to urban transportation planning. Topics included in each issue range from planning, financing, design, construction, operation and maintenance, to energy, environment, safety and human factors. In addition to project summaries each issue contains an index to the summaries by retrieval subject terms, an alphabetical index of funding and performing agencies. The summaries in each issue are arranged according to the HRIS classification scheme of 34 subject areas. The price of the 1973, 1974 and 1975 issues is $40.00 each. Additional information about the projects cited by the summaries may be obtained by writing to the project investigator at the performing agency.

HRIP information gathered subsequent to 1975 has been published by the International Road Federation in its World Survey of Current Research and Development on Roads and Road Transport, which is available for purchase from the National Technical Information Service, 5285 Port Royal Road, Springfield, Virginia 22161.
